Tsa checks?

2,861 Raindrop  5.4 years ago

I was going through tsa checks about an hour ago, when I went through the metal detector thing it beeped and I got pulled aside by a man with an assault rifle, he then swabbed my hands and let me go.
Why did he swab my hands if the metal detector beeped?

    @xXRaindropXx I can't really explain but i Think wendover has a video called "does Airport security work" or something like that and it mentions some things about it. It's a great video

    Because you got pulled aside which not everyone gets and then they use that chance to also swab your hands for any residue of drugs or other stuff. I don't really mind going through the checkpoints because why should I? If I don't have anything to hide it will probably go pretty fast. Be happy you weren't at the Ben Gurion Airport, pretty controversial system they have there.

    I get pulled aside for this almost any time I go through security. Do you happen to know why.

    Or they were looking for traces of explosive materials, they probably have a gas chromatograph on site.

    He took your DNA, now they are going to clone you, and make you a slave in a giant underground factory on the moon.
