Airport Security Measures

| 0 Comments

Wired claims that 9/11 security measures are largely ineffective. I agree.


The quote about the weakest link is most certainly true -- although I have found the big airports to be the loosest, while the smaller ones are more stringent. While airports definitely can be used to transform airplanes into bombs, we should be more concerned with protecting food and water supply, as well as important areas of transit -- highways, bridges, anything than can be used to create a bottleneck and amass people... because honestly, terrorists only want one thing -- fear, and the more people they kill, the more fear and chaos they are able to generate.
