The whole security sham is rather sad. You can still put a ceramic knife in your underwear, put a razor-sharp edge on the credit cards in your wallet and stab people with a pen.

The lockers are closed but the large trash bins adjacent are not. No real thought or strategy behind any of the so-called precautions.

The reinforced cockpit doors, reasonable scrutiny of passenger lists and the post-9/11 passenger response to any 'issues' onboard are probably more than enough to prevent a repetition.

Failure of or failure to heed intelligence reports was the biggest lesson from 9/11. We can only hope that has been addressed.
