Like I said...this is just to catch the stupid terrorists. All these images thay shot of a lady with a gun in her pants or a knife are bunk. A metal detector would find both of them

Indeed. And I think a lot of that charade comes out of the ignorance of the fact that it's long been proven that a 'smart', well-trained and determined group of plotters, with a bit of serious effort and planning, can get in ANYWHERE that they want. That's life for you - for all you want to pretend, you can never be 100% safe. And even if you can be 99.9% safe, an adequately prepared foe will target that 0.1% gap without mistake. If nothing else, I think Red Cell proved that. Honestly, it's a fortune for us all that by and large, Al Quaeda plotters after 9/11 have all been incompetent bunglers. And it's their fortune that on 9/11, noone seemed to take the possibility of what actually happened seriously.
