No one has ever attempted to hijack an Air Choice One plane and fly it into a building. Since several screened aircraft have been found to contain terrorists, clearly the screening procedures currently implemented result in a higher risk of terrorism.
This is scientific logic, based on the principle of comparison between a control group and an experimental group.

"When departing Jonesboro passengers are not screened, thus in order to be in the Sterile portion of the airport in St. Louis, screening is required....[Upon arrival at Lambert] passengers will be escorted from the aircraft to a shuttle, where the shuttle will then transfer the passengers to the front entrance of the airport (non-sterile area). This is because passengers have not been screened in Jonesboro, thus cannot access the sterile area until screening is conducted."
These airlines gradually added screening at their little airports so they could land at LAX and park with the big boys, especially after the Commuter Terminal closed and was torn down.
