I used to travel every week on Southwest which is my preferred airline but haven’t flown anywhere for the last two years. Received a “we miss you” email from Southwest and told them I’d return when TSA was gone. Sent copy to everyone on their board and airport managers everywhere in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Arizona which are serviced by Southwest. Our family drives everywhere on business and for pleasure or we don’t go. Makes for some very long trips but I refuse to be a participant in their gropeathon and thuggery.
ditto.

I agree with your sentiments.
However actions like this and many others that never get publicized do get the traveling public to change their preferred methods of travel.
The government on the other hand has shown that they prefer to have a more controlling hand over the “Legal and Lawful” populace and are doing everything they can imagine to make it incrementally more and more difficult to travel for business or pleasure.
And as another poster wrote with tongue in cheek, imagine the days to come when we all have to submit to cavity searches because some Ya-hoo created a “cavity bomb” and took out a “Plane/bus/mall”.
