Geez, how did airlines and airports ever cope without TSA? Had the airports done their jobs on 9/11, perhaps those hijacks never would have taken place. Locked cockpits should have been standard practice back then. So many things could have been done prior to 9/11 but weren't. It's not as if airplanes had never been hijacked before. Hell, I remember the Democrats holding up voting for the Patriot Act because they demanded TSA employees be unionized. Nothing's changed with the Democrats, they could care less about saving American lives. It's only ever been about looking out for themselves.
People were still getting free trips to Cuba in those days. {:-)
