I get it, but having people feel bad for the TSA of all organizations is a tall order. Why not pick a less controversial gov agency effected like say the National Parks and Museums?

Probably because parks and museums usually just close whenever this happens, so they're not working without pay. They're just on an indefinite suspension

And yet I can feel for them more, If the TSA was gone tomorrow I could not care.

The way it setup it will not mean the removal of the stupid safety theater, it will mean the closing of the airport.

I know, and that makes me even less inclined to have sympathy for the TSA as a whole. I know I should feel bad for the people working at the TSA, but I can't.
