Unachievable Security
December 12th 2010 16:20
Having 100% security anywhere is never achievable. TSA wants you to believe that your security is their concern, and they are willing to walk all over your rights to prove it. Common sense is not the TSA's forte. We don't know if the TSA tactics are actually working, or if they are just giving us a false sense of hope.
This article best breaks down TSA's tactics and your invasion of rights.
This sums it best from the article:
f we have both the right to privacy and the right to travel, then TSA’s newest procedures cannot conceivably be considered legal. The TSA’s regulations blatantly compromise the former at the expense of the latter, and as time goes on we will soon forget what it meant to have those rights.
Every time we convince ourselves that things “aren’t that bad” and thus not in need of change, we are training ourselves to be complacent in the face of injustice, and we are weakening our capacity to challenge those forces most in need of change. It could always be worse, but that doesn’t mean we should surrender the opportunity to make it better.
