There is a rider in the 2002 law that allows airports to opt out of the TSA after two years on an individual airport basis.Does that law require that airports replace TSA with a similar organization? If so, what would their hiring standards be?
There's no sense in it if the abuse will just continue with the same employees under the moniker of another alphabet-soup organization.
We should just sign wavers, be handed billy clubs and be on our way. When Mohammed jumps out of his seat, we beat the snot out of him until we get to the gate, making sure every inch of his body is black and blue, then shove a club up is butt and down his throat. I think this would be effective deterent for Mohammed.
I'm an opt-out for two years now, and damn proud of it.
