Original Message
The union that represents Transportation Security Administration workers on Tuesday said some TSA agents at airports should be armed.
David Borer, the general counsel for the American Federation of Government Employees, said arming TSA agents is the only way to protect them from incidents like last week's shooting at the Los Angeles International Airport.
"Our officers are verbally assaulted everyday; they're physically assaulted far too often, and they need better protection at those checkpoints," Borer said during an interview with Federal News Radio.
