Just would like to point out that once again, passengers have taken care of business in the air. Not only has the TSA never stopped a real threat, they never will. They sit back and spin yarns about deterring attacks, but the TSA’s ratio of sexual-assaults-to-maniacs-subdued is not encouraging when compared to that of passengers in general.
We are over ten years into the DHS experiment, which was designed to tear down the Gorelick Wall, and at great expense. Not only is it a complete failure, with the Wall back up and functioning (bureaucratic personal paranoia beats duty to protect a faceless public again), but Gorelick herself now serves as an advisor to Obama’s Pentagon. And for all the money spent to fail, the DHS actually refuses to to engage in cost-benefit analyses. They don’t know how to do basic Pareto analyses, and at any rate insist that whatever they want is important enough because they say so, and admit no need to prove it. This is an attitude which is popular among churches and dictatorships, as neither feels the need to answer to any earthly authority. Luckily for Obama, this administration is a bit of both.
Abolish the DHS.
