Default Re: Air travel security is retarded - why?

NTB,

Yes I did read your response to TWP. At the time, I disagreed with part of it, and this is a good a time as any to discuss:

"Also, [screening liquids] gives TSA a simple and explainable reason to do a more thorough search through your carry on luggage. Once again, seems silly to need an excuse, BUT every extra chance they have to get a deeper look at you and what you are carrying is an incremental increase in security."

Really? No one is really taking a closer look at the rest of the luggage because of this. The liquids are being separated and placed on the bed in their own container.

TSA needs no pretense for screening, If they want to increase the number of bag inspections, they should simply do so.
