I would do what the most successful country at thwarting terrorism has done. That country is Israel, and they have trained personnel stationed at their airport who observe each prospective passenger and question those who fit their profiling directives pertaining to their identity, their flying status, their suspiciousness, and other factors.

We have trained personnel to do similar things, but have deployed them incorrectly to just observe on the sidelines where they don't interact with fliers. A useless tactic. Israeli agents check you in, review your identification and papers and ask you questions. They have been very successful without utilizing the theatrics of our ridiculous tech prevalent system that treat every passenger as guilty until proven innocent.

I'm astonished at all the sheeple who blindly go along with the growing degradation of our freedoms and our dignity and the personal privacy of our bodies and our children's bodies for such a dubious result.
