But none of those recent terrorists went through an airport checkpoint, TSA or other, on the way to their terror attack.
In the past dozen years TSA has screened 700 million pax a year, or a total of 8 billion searches, which is more than the Earth’s population. Granted they did not search every individual person on Earth, and most of their customers are “repeat” customers. Many on this board have been screened hundreds if not thousands of times, and on their 1000th screening were found to be “Still NOT a terrorist.”
TSA has screened 8 billion passengers and found ZERO terrorists. What does that math tell you?
