Do you really feel having your balls juggled by some chump in a blue uniform makes you safer?
There are exactly two things that have made us safer since the WTC attack.
1) They lock the cockpit doors in flight. (In retrospect this should have been policy all along).
2) We, the people, will no longer "just do what the terrorists say and you'll be safe". We know now that we must do everything in our power to protect ourselves, not just sit there like stupid sheep and hope it works out.
All of this other crap - the shoes, the fondling, the pornoscanners - are to make people "feel safer" while doing exactly the opposite. The huge line of tightly compacted people in the non-secure part of the airport is every bit as much of a target as a plane at this point. All of the theatrics are useless - no one is going to try a shoe bomb or an underwear bomb again because now we are looking for them.
We all need to just stop traveling long enough to hurt the industry. Money talks - when the airports and airlines are dying from the financial pressure, they will use their paid for congresscritters to fix the TSA.
