I wish, the TSA was tested and it failed to stop 95% of instances of undercover Homeland Security agents from bringing on explosives and weapons.

That is not a counterpoint in any sort of way to what I was saying. Fear of being controlled could be enough. Thus making the origin point above my post wrong.

There is a term for what you described, security theater. I'm not saying it's worthless, but it's only not worthless because terrorists might believe it's not.
