I tend to agree, but this is only successful if people are willing to read critically, and avoid using their own prejudice to make judgements on a situation. That applies to all sides of the argument.

I have long admitted that I was guilty of colouring my opinion of some past reports based on my lack of negative interaction with TSOs and my personal distaste for posts using excessive hyperbole and/or name-calling. (And I have since learned that it is not only passengers who can use language which turns me away from their opinion)

My opinions changed however when I took the time to educate myself and to read critically and to investigate numerous sources. Combine that with personal negative encounters and I was better able to make judgements on this topic.
