VERY sorry.
TSA workers are still patriotic, it is not their fault.
The value was never going to be worth the trouble. Terrorists deal in opportunity and cracks in the system.
The TSA may stop the odd mental patient but I doubt they will have much effect on anybody who is competent.
They were a response to a crisis. Such projects are usually quietly shelved. The TSA was too public and too political to be abandoned.
