The hapless Transportation Security Administration, which released an improperly redacted copy of its 93-page Standard Operation Procedures manual online, has now allowed the manufacturer to identify the .357 caliber weapon carried by federal air marshals.
John Adler, president of the National Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, told ABC that the latest release of supposedly sensitive information was part of “an alarming pattern of disclosures” that jeopardize the safety of airline passengers.
Frank Terreri, president of the Federal Air Marshal Agency, agreed. “You really don’t want to give that playbook out to your enemy.”
But TSA just did. Again.
