While I agree with you about entrapment, my comment was made in response to the idea that TSA will use this as an excuse to implement stupid procedures on Metro and/or rail to "protect us".

This was about some form of police work, even if it was entrapment, rather than ANYTHING the TSA could ever have REMOTELY stopped.

That doesn't stop some sheeple, like the woman interviewed on the radio who said "wow, it's scary since we don't have any security on Metro".

You can bet that TSA folks are trying to figure out how to take credit for this.
