If I was ment to fly, I would have been born with wings. Last time I flew was 20+ years ago. The TSA Agents need to go to Isreal for training on how to make air travel safe. Everytime I have to go to the airport to fetch someone the TSA reminds me of the Keystone Cops of silent movie fame.

You’re probably at a higher risk driving a vehicle.

But I know my vehicle is being driven by a sober person, and if it quits, I can pull it over. My car will not fall to earth, and burn.

I have know for years our airports shall we say do not take security sourously.

You’re still at a higher risk in a vehicle, even if operating sober.

And how would you fix this issue with airport security?

Fix cost money, cause I convinces, and copy what Isreal does. Friend works with Homeland Security (DHS) he spent a month in Isreal to see how they do things. He was impressed with their no BS Policies, and attacking problems.

He said the ACLU would be upset with the way they do stuff in Isreal.

Is there a specific reason you find that TSA isn’t working?

If you check the annual stats they look like they’re doing a decent job

Unless you have some examples of them failing...

A public stoning would go a long way to preventing any law breaking. But for one reason or another, those are frowned upon lol.

At Detroit Metro. My Ronson made it through.
I have found that I was able to get a ronson through tsa precheck for roughly 8-10 security checks before one of the guards would take it. After losing 4 of them in the past year, I now carry a Zippo.

The News recently report ho good the TSA was at stopping weapons getting passed them. Apprently a private contractor was hire to test test the TSA Agents , and the results were not good.

Like I said I do not fly, my passport was to go across the border to Mexico, and I don't do that no more. So I don't even have a passport.

Our POTUS is protected by people who understand security. The Secret Service. Real professionals, not for or rent-a-cops in new uniforms called TSA.
