Are you serious!?!?
I can think of a few instances that would seem to contradict your statement.
I'm all for being sensible about security, but I'm also all for
security. Anyone tries to get on my plane with boxcutters, yeah, I want them stopped.
Your statements are illogical. Knives are not credible weapons. Pilots do not open the cockpit door and they land the plane at the first sign of trouble. Passengers also would attack any idiot who tried to hijack or destroy a plane with a knife.
It is a complete waste of time and resources to even search passengers for knives at the checkpoint, let alone get one's panties in a wad over their presence in the sterile area.
