So, the pedophile is only going through the contents of your luggage, not your actual children? Right now? Well, THAT’S a relief.
Because even in a 'Post-9/11 World' we still have rights.
Good thing he’s been working to keep you safe.
Bruce Schneier is a smart guy.
TSA: Not protecting you from any terrorists, but hell on jets with sick people.
“A terrorist wearing the latest underwear bomb would not have been caught by the TSA’s most conscientious human screeners or its highest-tech fullbody scanners, experts told The Post yesterday.”
Of course not. The TSA has never caught an actual threat. Never; not once.
Drugs, but it could just as easily have been explosives. And in the future, it probably will be.
Do you feel good about what was done to this girl to keep you safe?
The TSA has gotten their terrorist detection rate all the way up to 0%. Good for them.
One of the people you are required to let look at your kids naked (or let fondle them) if you want to fly on an airplane.
You feel safe now, right?
Security professionals.
Aren’t you glad she’s keeping you safe?
Our security professionals.
Right on the money.
The pre-9/11 airport security checks are perfectly adequate—at least as effective as all the theatrics that have mostly replaced it. The offensive part is that only a small portion of the flying public is allowed to use it.
This, of course, opens another security vulnerability. If a terrorist wanted to go through the supposedly more lax ‘Precheck’ security line at the airport, all he has to do is take the identity of someone who is cleared for Precheck.
Of course, that’s not a vulnerability for the airport; as I said, the new security checks don’t actually do anything. It’s a security vulnerability for the people on the ‘Precheck’ list.
