TSA: How Hard Is It To Get A Boxcutter Past The Repurposed Mall Food Court Workers Manning Airport "Security"?
Recall that boxcutters were used by the 9/11 terrorists on the planes they used to mass-murder 3,000-plus people for Allah.

Of course, back then, people didn't tackle terrorists on planes because we -- naive, Enlightenment-encouraged infidels -- were of the belief that terrorists wanted a bag of money and a trip to someplace that didn't extradite to the US.

All that's changed (along with reinforced cockpit doors) -- but the TSA's pretend "security" ignores that.

From a Christopher Elliott post:

Andy deLivron says he's no threat to aviation security. But he flies with box cutters in his checked luggage -- the same weapon used by the 9/11 terrorists. And he recently packed the sharp tools in the wrong suitcase.

By the time deLivron, a sales manager from Pottersville, NY, realized the box cutters had been misplaced in his carry-on bag, it was too late. He was already past the TSA screening area at Dallas Love Field and boarding his flight to Orlando, where he planned to catch a connecting flight to Albany, NY.

DeLivron missed his connection and had to spend the night in Orlando.

"But now I had a problem toss the knife or try to get it home in my carry-on bag," he says. "I decided if I could place the knife on edge in my carryon it would be highly likely that security would miss it again. Sure, enough I was right. My carryon went right on through in Orlando."

Yes, you read correctly. TSA agents missed a box cutter in his carry-on luggage. Twice in a day.

And no planes fell from the sky.

Elliott notes, as I have:

If there's a consensus among security experts, it's that the meaningful screening takes place long before you arrive at the airport, and that's where the failures of 9/11 happened.

Far easier for lawmakers and Homeland "Security" thuggos to make you take off your shoes than to take responsibility.
