GREETINGS FROM THE TRANSPORT SECURITY ADMINISTRATION

Found a card in my luggage while traveling by air in the States; it says, in part:

"If the TSA screener was unable to open your bag for inspection because it was locked, the screener may have been forced to break the locks on your bag. TSA sincerely regrets having to do this, however TSA is not liable for damage to your locks resulting from this necessary safety precaution."

It made me feel a lot more nationally secure than I'd felt before, knowing that someone was breaking luggage locks on an equitable basis. I'm just glad I used my ratty old duffel bag and not my Pradas, Guccis and Louis Vuittons...
