This is so off topic that we should all stop.
But if you think screening passangers at airports is making air travel safer
then you are sadly mistaken.
I would suggest you try (1) getting on the tarmac at any airport - trivial
or (2) getting something through security via the food/sale items sold
at the kiosks near the gates - even more trivial.
Bad people are not stupid. There are so many holes in the system that we could
spend the next 6 months itemizing them here.
