And how many people work at the TSA ?
No offense but what you said was grossly insulting to the good people who do work at the TSA. There are bad characters in ANY organisation. I fail to see why the TSA would be magically exempt.
- mikeash 14y agoSo what if they're not magically exempt. If this is something inherent to any organization like it, then that just means the entire concept is flawed.
- taligent 14y agoHow is the entire concept flawed just because of a small percentage of employees ? Because that would also mean that every industry that involves someone in a position of power is also flawed. You will never be able to stop these things from happening. You can just contain and minimize the risk.
- mikeash 14y agoBecause when you're guarding against events that are literally one in a billion, it defeats the whole purpose if your setup allows corrupt employees to sneak contraband through screening.

I agree with this statement: any organization in this position is vulnerable to attack. However, it should be noted--as was the grandparent comment's intent, I believe--that the TSA, rather than providing additional security, appears to be introducing an additional vulnerability.
