Did everybody but me miss this gem buried near the bottom of the article?:
The TSA will also consider deploying SPOT teams to other transportation systems like train and bus stations.
I shudder at the thought of what this disgrace of an agency is going to foist upon us next.
With regard to fake IDs, who cares that they found some? They found NOBODY who was a threat to airplane safety. The ID check only really serves to enforce the airline non-transferability of ticket rules. If the person sitting next to me is unarmed then it really doesn't matter what his background is, now does it? El Al let Richard Reid fly. That says a bundle to me.
