airport security

I thought that the clip about airport security was very enjoyable. I don't believe that we are as safe as we can be in airports or airplanes. I mean yes, they have reduced the amount of liquid that we can carry but that does not necessarily keep up from danger. They don't even know what kind of liquid it is. They don't have the equipment to detect if it would be harmful or not. Like the lady in the video said, two people can combine the liquid they bring onto the plane and cause a lot of damage. To the idea that we are letting everyone know what is going on in our airports does not help either. They could come up with other ways to bring harmful things on planes. I think that airports should up their equipment to find weapons and dangerous powders and liquids.

Well my cousin works for TSA, and as I understand people are mad about the money that they already spent... So upgrading their systems to find dangerous powders and liquids would cost even more money... Its a tough issue because some people don't want anymore money being spent to upgrade and some people want to be more safe. SO WHAT SHOULD THEY DO? well they could compromise but there is always going to be people who are unhappy with the way things are. I do understand where your trying to state, but I just don't know how it will be possible to make both sides happy.
