    I can’t imagine wearing that shirt but seriously their security theater deserves to be continuous berated and the whole thing needs to be eliminated. I want 1980s airports back and a government that has to have a specific court order to spy on any given citizen.

      yes.

      Airplanes are secure enough already, they all have the front area locked off so hijackings are now basically a non-issue. So then the only reason to sneak something onto a plane would be to kill a lot of people, which you can do easily enough without going on an airplane. See: US schools

      I’d like to be able to bring my 3.8 oz, half-used gel deodorant on an airplane with me. Apparently TSA isn’t smart enough to figure out that if it’s originally 3.8 oz, and half of it’s gone, then it’s somewhere under the max 3.4 oz size limit. Also, I’m probably not planning on causing damage to anyone with my deodorant, quite the opposite actually, I’m protecting them from my stank.
