[quote]HONOLULU — Federal airport authorities are praising an off-duty California police officer who came to the rescue of a security agent who was being assaulted at the Honolulu airport.
Corporal Justin Rogers of the Pinole Police Department was on vacation and had just taken off his shoes to go through security on March 30 when he spotted the assault.
Security footage released Thursday shows a woman hit a female Transportation Security Administration officer and put her in a headlock. Rogers jumped over a small wall and threw her to the ground.
Pinole police Cmdr. Pete Janke told the Contra Costa Times that Rogers identified himself and was given a pair of handcuffs to put on the suspect. He made his flight back home.
The suspect's identity or what prompted her to attack the agent was not immediately known.

I could think of a few reasons why someone would attack a TSA agent.

Did TSA ever find a bomb or something else terroristic? How are they supposed to fight of terrorists when they can't even handle a civilian?

uh yeah, they're actually fairly effective at stopping terrorism. It's just that they get a bad rep for the 2% of guards who are retarded power trippers

TSA doesn't do patdowns but it's okay you're trying

Not true, it's just usually voluntary now. My dad wanted us to not go through the old X-ray machines at the San Diego airport, so they frisked us and swabbed us for explosives.
