TSA steals clothing from videographer Sean Malone

Mr. Malone’s friend Marian Dougherty reports:

This is a belt buckle that the TSA at DCA tried to steal from Sean Malone. For “safety.” Fortunately someone two supervisors up from the standard violator had enough of a brain to return Sean’s harmless belt buckle and send him on his merry way.

Apparently no one at LAX has a brain or common sense, though. The TSA “confiscated” (read: stole) this belt buckle this morning.

Yes. A belt buckle that looks like (half of) a tiny metal raygun that would fit in the palm of your hand. I’m sure everyone on that flight feels safer now.
