The Transportation Security Administration said Monday that it found 58 guns at checkpoints from March 22 to April 22, compared with 346 guns over the same stretch last year.

Adjusting for the 95% drop in travelers, that means TSA screeners found one gun for every 80,000 people screened — or 2.7 times the rate of a year ago, when they found one gun for every 216,200 people.

This means one of two things.  Either the type of person to fly in the midst of a pandemic is disproportionately the type of person who would try to carry a gun through a TSA security checkpoint, or TSA agents were missing about 3/4 of the guns that made it to checkpoints because they were so busy.
