Prevention of terrorist attacks is the point. Having no terror attacks doesn’t mean there would be none without them. As I said , security theatre, patting down grandma, is not the success. I’d be inclined to listen to the experts. However, I’m worried this administration no longer has any.
I don’t disagree. My point is about how we measure success. For a state apparatus that is meant to prevent terrorism, the lack of airplane based terrorism is not necessarily a sign that it’s not needed. It can also be a sign of it’s success.
However, it’s a giant organization with lots of useless parts, too. Like parting down grandma, or more likely abuela.
Prevent WHAT?
Something that already happened? The FBI knew about the hijackers. They LET it happen.
We’ve already fixed the problem with secure cockpit doors. There is no need to pat down grandma on her way to Disneyland.

So we agree that anything can be used for good or evil and this is now being used for evil.
I can live with that.
