Richard Dawkins being his usual prissy self

Assuming the TSA has never actually caught a terrorist, I still feel much more comfortable with the airport security the way it is, regardless. It's annoying and sometimes stupid, but I'd still take it over having any less security.

That's kinda the point though, removing most of what the TSA does doesn't lower security. "Security theater" is performing a lot of unnecessary actions that are claimed to increase security but in actual fact do nothing at all, other than waste people's time.
