There is an old Proverb, "Only Our Enemies Truly Know How Many Plots We Foiled."

I hate TSA as much as the next guy, but their presence and efforts could have deterred and foiled thousands of plots you and I would never hear about because they don't even know about them.

Denying the reality of the potential danger airplanes can cause to major population centers, like we saw on 9/11 is foolish. Airport Security May Suck. But, It May Be Saving More Lives Than It's Killing Indirectly.

Total load of bullshit. TSA has never caught a single would-be terrorist. Not one. I'd submit that the FBI/CIA have also never stopped a terrorist plot that we don't know about. The reason I'm confident in saying this is because of the ones they have told us about. Why would you tell the public about cases where you pretty clearly entrapped someone if you had better examples?
