    They would simply say ignorance of the law is no excuse.

    With that said, memorize the TSA's number: 1-866-289-9673

    I agree, but there's no way for me to acquaint myself with said law...

    There are regulations that are avaiable but like anything else it's hard and hell to find. I asked for a hand inspection of equipment of which I had TSA documentation and regulation printed out and was told at BWI that they had the right to refuse and insisted upon the x-ray issue, I asked to see the supervisor and very calmly spoke to him. Once I told him the equipment was worth 50K he suddenly said ok. That must be the magic number, My feeling is that when you put a badge on some people it goes to their head. I'm all for security but when you are complying, why can't they do their job? We as tax paying US citizens need to have our rights protected and not be treated like communists or criminals by smug underpaid, uneduated tsa employees.
