There is no way to know how the passenger intended to use those guns.

It stretches my credibility that someone planning a plane trip could be unaware of the rules regarding whether guns may be packed in carry on luggage.

In general, I find the business of the TSA suspect at best.

The issue is not whether overworked, probably undertrained staff are considerate or rude. Obviously there are polite friendly people and judge-y inconsiderate people everywhere.

For me the question is Does the TSA have the right to have intimate access to our private bodies, and whether that invasion of privacy does anything anyway.
