Airport Security At It's Best

I get searched at LAX pretty regularly, and one time I nearly lost it.
Leaving the US from LAX, I was pulled aside while I was in freaking line to check in. They had a table set up right around the check in, where they searched every bit of my luggage. My toiletries, my underwear, gifts for friends, everything all inspected and held up for all to see. Bastards. Thankfully I didn't have anything odd in there.

A year later arriving back to LAX from Asia, I had to catch a separate domestic flight, and while I am waiting to check in, I got pulled aside and told that my bag would be going through the machine. I'm thinking, "Sweet, at least they aren't pulling that other **** again!" I stand there while security grabs my bag roughly and I approach him and say, "Yo, take it easy on my bag please." He rolls his eyes, turns and throws my bag down on the conveyor belt to the scanning machine. At that point I'm livid, and I have security telling me to carry on and go to my gate. I go outside to have a quick smoke, and see the bastard throw my bag one last time for good measure on the checked baggage conveyor belt.

****er broke a gift I received from my boss, a wooden statue.
