I'm convinced all airport security is pure theater and wouldn't actually stop a terrorist attack. For example, the Dept. of Homeland Security (US agency) found that the TSA's failure rate is "in the ballpark of 80%"[0]
Another quote from the article:
"secret teams from the DHS found that the TSA failed 95 percent of the time to stop inspectors from smuggling weapons or explosive materials through screening."
So we're wasting peoples time and forcing nonsensical procedures upon them to... not actually stop anything.
