The Christmas Day underwear-bombing attempt means the bastard TSA is getting tougher on smugglers of bacon and other cured meats

The government isn't moved by such arguments. Sausages and hams "are much more dangerous than people think," says Janice Mosher, an official at U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which seizes about 4,000 pounds of prohibited meat, plant and animal products a day. "Those items truly have the ability to spread disease." The government is concerned that bacteria from a smuggled piece of meat will spread through the ecosystem, infecting livestock and hurting agricultural production, Ms. Mosher says.

In cured meat? What is this guy, some sort of retard hired on as part of the mainstreaming process?
