Per the Boston Globe, here’s a list of the things they’re considering when looking for suspicious people:
According to TSA internal documents published by the Boston Globe, air marshals observe passengers for a number of behaviours including:
Excessive fidgeting
Excessive sweating
Cold penetrating stare
Wide open, staring eyes
Face touching
How much they sleep during a flight
Using a smartphone
So… If you’re staring after your fucking umpteenth hour dealing with TSA BS, or are using your phone somehow, or maybe sleeping, or not? Cut the crap already and start looking non-threatening.
