“So...is Williams suggesting we drop security at airports altogether?”
They already have. While you are gullible enough to think that strip searching grandma is “security”, illegal aliens work the airplane, the tarmac, and are all throughout the terminal buildings. Hell, many of the TSA workers are foreigners. Stick that in your security pipe and smoke it.
How about that shoe search everyone does? One bomber tries to light his shoes on fire and we all now must remove our shoes. How stupid. How about that belt or many other items of clothing that can conceal plastic explosives? We don’t remove those, but we sure remove those shoes.
How about the fact that time and time again investigative officials have been able to get guns aboard and past those high-school dropout TSA workers?
Security, my ass.
Well, no. You may be gullible enough to believe that the airlines are unsecured but I'm rational enough to realize that the TSA is the last line of defense. And that any plots against airlines are most likely stopped days before the flight and miles away from the airport by state and federal law enforcement authorities. So I'm not depending on TSA to protect me. I'm not stupid enough to believe that profiling Arabs would provide security. I'm smart enough to realize that it's a much bigger job being done by professionals nowhere near the airport.

Not just security pros, journalists and freelancers have done it too.
