What's your point? Keep in mind the TSA's own internal testing has found them to be largely ineffective.[1][2] [1]https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelgoldstein

  My point? My point is there were 3,656 less loaded firearms in airplanes last year in the United States than there would have been without TSA, and 20-something thousand 'dangerous devices' total kept off the flights. That's 3,656 less chances of a hijacking, or accidental discharges depressurizing a cabin and causing an emergency landing. Really, the number of chances is likely higher than that considering many of those instances likely came with one or more connecting flights.

    You can still catch those firearms with a simple metal detector. You don't need device searches or indefinite detention.
