Had 3 "cans" of Zyn in my checked bag in an interior zipper. Opened my bag a short time ago, the zipper is unzipped and the cans are gone. No note in the bag or anything.

What the ****. It's 12$ worth of stuff so whatever but I brought those so I wouldn't have to stop and get some. What horse **** they can just open my bag, take ****, and non explanation whatsoever.

**** TSA. ****ing ******* thief's.

I had a knife taken from a checked bag last year. It was hidden in some clothes in the bottom of the suitcase and they found it and took it. No note or anything, I guess someone decided they needed it more than the owner, me, did.

Maybe you need to relax and drink some O'Doul's.

Bought a golden tee machine at a police auction a while back. I bet it's very similar.

I smuggled about 15 pounds of Maasai snuff back from Tanzania. I even got pulled aside by customs in Houston but they didn't even check my bag that had it in there, they were more interested in my guns.

Alright so the baggage handlers took it, not TSA. Doesn't change the fact it's messed up. I already went and bought more. It's the fact these *******s were sifting through my stuff, TOOK things, and I was given zero explanation.

They're supposed to leave a note explaining why your bag was opened and things taken, if any, so yes. That would've been nice.

We brought some tasty small limes from a grocery store in CDMX in Feb 2020. DFW Customs took them. Several of those F'ers were eating peaches, probably confiscated.

I bought one of those "oyster with a pearl in it" souvenirs many years ago. It was in a tuna can basically. Gone from luggage between SFO and Easterwood.

If they want to get into your bag they break the locks with bolt cutters

Well, the TSA is supposed to leave note. But as already pointed out, it was probably an airline employee, not TSA. And as also already pointed out, you shouldn't really expect them to leave a note.

Of it makes you feel any better TSA has managed to disallow cameras/recordings of them when going through your bags.

If you quit dipping why not do the tobacco free products that still have nicotine. Many studies show like caffeine nicotine has positive benefits. I'll never stop dipping. I move it around, brush, floss, listerine after ever dip. Get UV light check twice a year with dentist and also get three cleanings a year. If it gets me it gets me but smokeless tobacco is way low versus smoking. Life to short so I'm going to live it and enjoy my snuff and my beer

It's one mans option just like anything else like if anyone wants to give up booze, caffeine and so forth. I was just only pointing out nicotine like caffeine has some benefits

I quit dipping 8 years ago. A month ago I quit nicotine products for spinal fusion as it inhibits bone growth.
