    TSA is just to make you feel Good -

    The screening of passengers is just so You feel more secure -

    If You knew that just 2 feet under your feet is Air Mail

    packages that have been inspected Zero times-

    The post office uses the Known Shipper rule -

    If you have sent packages threw the mail for awhile

    You are a Known Shipper - Easy as that -

    Also when the TSA stopped allowing bottles of Liquid

    in carry on baddage I was Very Stunned that they

    just thought of this -5 years after 911 -

    Most explosives start out as Liquids -

    The explosive liquids are mixed with things like

    clay - saw dust ect to make them more stable

    so that the explosives can be handled and not detonate -

    Dynamite is a good example of this -

    I dont think Suicide bombers worry about the bomb

    going off -
