The airport security systems are not going anywhere but here to stay. Just get used it and don't whine. Be a sensible citizen to appreciate the work of TSA when they do good as well as criticize them if they do wrong.
The above two paragraphs are in opposition to each other. "(T)he work of TSA" is about as far as one can get from taking the threats that we have seriously. In reality TSA is focused exclusively on the threat we once had and does absolutely nothing about any current threats.
