ducklite said:The best way to keep our skies safe is good intelligence, not harrassment of the flying public. Piss off enough people with knee-jerk reactions and ridiculous rules and the TSA won't need to worry about hiring enough people. There won't be anyone flying and half the airlines will shut down, and with that will come layoffs, both in the travel industry but also in the TSA.

Harrassment?!?!?!
Or, they will compenstate this "knee-jerk" reaction with a compromised plan that works better in the long run. And people will adjust to it just like they've done already.
You seem to be dismissing that fact that part of that flying public are people who wish to cause harm. So should we do away with ALL "harrassments" of the flying public? Or just the ones you don't like or think will work?
Let me jump right out and make a politically incorrect statement.
PROFILE!!
If the police get a report of a white man with orange hair, an eye patch and a scar on his face (anyone see Johnny English?) is a "person of interest" to the authorities, they shouldn't be shaking down black grannies and little kids in an attempt to be PC. If you want to call something BS Anne, that's the REAL BS.
If there are reports of someone trying to sneek explosive compents on to an airplane, along with potential trigger devices, shouldn't we prohibit those items until they can find a better way to screen for them?
To make this less harrassing for the bulk of the traveling public, just force people of middle eastern decent to trash their liquid goods and electronic devices.
Or better yet, just keep them off the planes altogether.
