So what they have is totally useless. Even if they used x-rays it would be totally useless.

The ONLY option to keep us safe is profiling. There would still be the possibility that somebody could be hypnotized or something, to evade the behavioral detection, but if somebody went to the trouble of hypnotzing somebody they’re not gonna just put a bomb inside their clothes, which is all either of these measures would detect.

Including 9/11 around 3500 people have been killed in terrorist caused incidents on US airplanes in the last 10 years.

Hospitals and doctors mistakenly killed around 95,000 a year.
Car accidents kill something like 55,000 people a year.

While each death is tragic terrorists attacks on airplanes represent a greater threat to the economy than to human lives.

How many terrorist attacks have been stopped by airport security since 9/11? The ones stopped were stopped by passengers.
