Security

So long as the TSA doesn't publicize the weaponry it's found -- the actual weaponry, and not the lame we think that liquid could be an explosive, so you can't bring it -- I doubt anyone's going to believe their statements about how the pornoscanners are really just another tool, nothing to worry about, and Enhanced Pat Down isn't another word for being groped. Treating citizens as criminals -- okay, let's start with Barack. The whole family gets to go through this every time any of them flies on Air Force One. All the Senators, all the Congressmen. Them, too, every time. All the actors, the celebrities. Oh, and everyone going to a private jet, too -- after all, those can be flown into buildings, too. All of them. Every time. Okay?

Yeah, like that's gonna happen.

Of course, fools writing that we should just accept that someone is eventually going to 'ship a few bombs', and we should get over it, don't help the discussion.

It is so stupid to screen pilots...why let them even fly the plane!!

Well, it's not intuitively certain that they didn't just dress that way, and aren't actually pilots at all.

But yes, much of it is security theater, no matter what the TSA says.
