I agree that this should not be made public. It just announces to the bad guys that someone's on to them. This week a family emergency required me to fly and, not knowing when I'd be coming back, I bought one-way tickets one at a time over a 2 day period. Well, if you have a one-way ticket, TSA gives you "special screening". I said, "Don't you think the bad guys will just make sure they buy round-trip tickets?". When you "telegraph" your punches like that, you're gonna lose the fight.

good observations.

Did they stamp SSSS on your boarding pass? (It's an Arabic acronym that translates to "Praise Allah, the operation is postponed.").

Tell that to the 92,872 posts complaining about random searches. The minute you announce that people in wheelchairs will not be searched... The profiles have to be keep secret - and given the performance of the TSA, I'm not sure I trust them.
