While it is certainly promising that the rate of passengers bringing firearms to the checkpoint has decreased, one firearm at the checkpoint is too many... Every time we discover a firearm at the checkpoint, the security screening process is slowed down for all.

The TSA does not confiscate guns at its checkpoints, but instead contacts local law enforcement to safely unload and take possession of the firearm... could impose a fine up to $15,000.
