CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) – The director of Charlotte Douglas International says he doesn’t think the TSA should be in charge of the airport’s security.
“I think they spend way too much money and I think it could be done a lot quicker, a lot better at a lot less expense,” said Jerry Orr.
Orr said he has always believed the airport’s police officers could do the job TSA agents do. He says he has been carefully following the backlash of the body scanners and thorough pat downs over the past several days.
To him, the complaints — especially flight attendant Cathy Bossi’s harrowing experience over being asked to removed her prosthetic breast — are nothing new. “With the amount we’ve spent with the technology that’s available that’s seems a lit overboard doesn’t it,” said Orr.

Charlotte-Douglas is now the second airport I am aware of that is considering throwing out TSA. Orlando is the other and San Francisco already uses a private contractor.
The TSA stories hitting the media are getting more and more horrific with each passing day. I think the worst one I’ve seen so far now is the experience of a Mr. Tom Sawyer, a bladder cancer survivor, who has to wear a urostomy bag. Despite his warning to the TSA security guard, who patted him down regarding his condition, the agent caused the bag to leak and Mr. Sawyer had to board the plane with his own urine splashed on him.
While the fascist director of TSA, John Pistole, insists they will not budge on the new intrusive procedures, I have a feeling his hand is going to be forced eventually. The backlash is building and I think the Congress is going to have no choice but to intervene.
