The REAL airline security benefit was 2 things:
Locks on cockpit doors
Vigilant passengers.
That's it. All the security theater is exactly that - it's a theater production.
The TSA can't even detect guns reliably. In 2023, they failed 95% of gun tests. https://www.travelcodex.com/tsa-misses-95-of-weapons-in-its-own-tests/ https://www.travelcodex.com/tsa-misses-95-of-weapons-in-its-...
Or different sites require laptops in separate boxes, but this site is fine. Or shoes on, or shoes off. Porno scanners. Basically the TSA was a big corporate donation to security appratus, and a huge worthless make-work operation.
And if they're really worried about terrorism, it's still beyond stupid. There's still long lines BEFORE security that they could target.
But you know, that person with a small pocketknife is a "REAL DANGER" so the government thieves those evil weapons or how dare they bring 2.5 ounces!
Its stupid idiot theater all around.
