Someone please reassure me that TSA ISN'T incompetent and operating with zero common sense. All that we have to go through at the security checkpoints, and they still suck at their jobs! (If you can)

So how did they find the contraband when in flight?
per news reports,the TSA people did screen the man and found the boxcutter,took out the blades and gave both the blades and the item back to him!i have been "double screened"and had even some small bottles of hand lotion taken away! go figure..yes,TSA employees can and do make mistakes,even with the x ray total body screen modules and other such they have available...
