Nor do I believe that Homeland Security is 110% sure that cargo arriving in ships from overseas ports are safe.
Again, risk assessment: there is no real risk. Pilots and mechnics and random nature kill more people every year than all twerrista.
Look at the EU again: rational security (for the most part) and no planes falling out of the skies. You keep going on about threats but you're not pointing to any actual threat that exists in any meaningful (ie. can be rationally addressed) sense. You can't stop the lone nutter and there's essentially no reason to try unless you like security theatre and wasting everyone's time & money.
