I was halfheartedly listening to the morning news this morning while getting ready, when I heard a piece about how the Transportation SecurityAdministration wants to help us get through security quickly when we fly this season. I know I shouldn't be surprised anymore, but I was flabbergasted; how can they claim that? If they really wanted us to be able to get through security quickly, they wouldn't have their retarded security theater rules that slow down the process. Does anyone really still think that shampoo might be the component for a bomb? Does anyone really still think that x-raying our shoes is going to catch a terrorist?
I was really surprised when I went to Cuba by how little security there was, considering that they've been the target of the longest running state sponsored terrorism campaign ever. There was literally ZERO security to get on a plane there. The efficacy of using a plane as a weapon wouldn't be any less there. Why no security? Seriously, I don't know. Maybe it's because their totalitarian state is expected to catch terrorists before they actually get to the airport. Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not espousing a police state, but I somehow doubt that the TSA and their "Behavior Detection Officers" are going to keep us safe.
