I've flown 10-15 times in the past few years. The current procedures are not only ineffective at actually catching terrorists, but cannot keep up with the flow of airport traffic. My most recent trip was utterly ruined by the TSA due to a 90-minute line at Boston-Logan. I asked if I could jump ahead because I was going to miss my flight, but I was told too many people were asking that. Of course, the flight was missed, the next available was delayed and I was forced to stay overnight at a shitty motel for four hours of sleep.
I don't know a single person who even feels safer with the TSA around. This organization is an egregious overreaction to the virtually nonexistent threat of terrorism (compared to other death rates and acts of violence). I can only imagine how it feels to have metal implants and being forced into a full-body pat down.
