i want to bring home some beer from my trip to Mexico. I also have two bottles of liquor. I have wrapped all the bottles in plastic bags, then wrapped each individual bottle inside a shirt. You think I will have any problems? Will tsa go through my bag and fuck everything up?

They went through my shit a month ago. My camera ended up in an outer pocket and got destroyed, as well as some other electronics. And of course they are “not responsible for lost or broken electronics in checked bags.”
They randomly selected my bag to search. Unpacked all my shit, then threw it back in. All the bottles were touching, so naturally they smashed. I just threw my whole suitcase, clothes and all, in the garbage
Fortunatly it was a cheap suitcase I bought just for this purpose, and only had underwear and cheap clothes…
I guess bringing back booze wasn’t such a hot idea.
