#2 But Schumer said many employees who work in the secure sections of airports are exempt.

And in Atlanta, which is the focus of the discussion [due to recent gun smuggling], many of these "exempt" persons are cut from a very specific bolt of cloth. We must be very careful about employment screening, background checks, and hiring restrictions, else we'll have no employees at all. The impacts on Affirmative Action could be devastating.

#3 we just can't be too careful,

Then there's ZERO security. It really is just theatre. Every airside Airport staff member in the U.K. gets checked more thoroughly than passengers do.

The TSA is a waste of space.

#6 Yeah, just don't bother the "students" from places like Soddy Arabia, Chechnya and Yemen.
