If that's not hitting the nail on the head, I'm not sure what is. Our government (especially the feds) need to realize that doing something is far less important than doing the right thing (which may, in fact, turn out to be nothing).MasterOfNone wrote:TSA is a prime example of one of government's flawed approaches to any situation. When something fails because existing policies were not followed, in the panicked need to "do something" they create more policy instead of addressing the failure to follow that which is already in place.

Re: Man boards plane at IAH with loaded gun in carry-on
From the article:
A person briefed on the latest tests tells ABC News the failure rate approaches 70 percent at some major airports. Two weeks ago, TSA's new director said every test gun, bomb part or knife got past screeners at some airports.
A 70% failure rate is the best they can do? Seriously?!? Taco Bell has higher standards!"Look, this is simply human error," Conway said. "When something like this happens, it's human error. I mean, these folks are doing the best job they can."
