No. The dangerous terrorist puts something dangerous on a 3 year old in an attempt to smuggle something through security....I hope your not working at an airport.

Decision making is always about the cost to its created value.
The tough part is… Would you risk your life for sick/old man? Would you spend billions dollar to save one life? The answer is “No” per insurance policy calculation. If you will have zero income for your whole life, your life is just worthless. Therefore, we are all digging the gold.
One thing is very certain… this economy just make us worth less. In positive term, we just have less to lose.

Thanks for creating jobs in america by bringing in these new scanners, hiring new people to invade my privacy, maintain the machines and service them. Brilliant! And it also stops terrorism. Lets bring in more scanners at Buses/Trains and create more jobs. The truth as I see it is "A free society like the US is getting on the defensive and reacting in extreme proportions to these terrorists. Don't get me wrong, I am beginning to think that the terrorists are achieving their goals by putting everyone of us on the defensive. What they are doing is "dragging our money and resources" to an activity that doesn't create value.
I don't mind any number of body scans to be safe. Its what every person who values his/her life will not argue about.The logic given below is specious at best. A Terrorist will invent something new to circumvent the system. There is no end to this game. Rather the DHS should learn some techniques from the "State of Israel" on how to proactively gather intelligence about passengers to prevent the terrorists from even reaching the airports!
Anyway, at least the venture created some jobs! So Merry X-Mas and thanks for the pat down! I don't mind them as long as another american got a job

I don’t mind to be screened or pat-down as long as it has a greater paid off.
Anyone who likes privacy more than the life, can choose to travel by car, or...even walk. You will have a lot of privacy by walking through the deserts and mountains.

Rarely am I motivated to comment on media content but must do so in this case. Mr Rose presented such softball questions to the Secretary, making this interview essentially of no informative or insightful value. Two excellent questions which begged to be asked would pertain to the logical application of profiling when screening passengers at terminals (guess how many white males have planted bombs for terrorist purposes on US planes since 1938-that answer would be 1, Dr. Ted Kaczynski;and guess how many females have done the same -0.) So why are we spending billions on screening when it should be much more focused on a specific group of ethnic types? Second question , or actually numerous multiple questions, what is DHS doing with respect to the increasing violence on the Mexican border brought about by drug cartels, to begin with, against American citizens and law enforcement officers. Sorry to say Mr. Rose did not make the most of the opportunity to ask some appropriate questions of Napolitano.

Watched this interview and it was painful. Almost maddening. Certainly it exemplified how this style maintained by Rose when interviewing a person like Napolitano almost gives Napolitano the license to evoke stupidity under the mistaken belief the public is dumbed down enough not to notice. Old days. Old journalism. Too much abuse from power and they haven't noticed the legion will soon bring relief and a new journalism and a new day.

ANOTHER bureaucrat that can't figure out how 'terrorists' are created! I love how she implies that you have to go to Pakistan or Afghanistan to learn 'tradecraft' or to become so fed up with the immorality and injustice of this hypocritical country that you can't take it anymore.
An equally important question to where 'terrorists' come from is where do our political and bureuacratic leaders come from. Why do so many have law degrees? Why are so many of these 'public servants' former prosecutors and State Attorneys General?
I would love to debate any of these advocates for the 'War on Terror'. It is nonsensical on every level from the disparity between the degree of the threat relative to the exaggerated response to the fundamental question of what a 'terrorist' is. What does it even mean to provide 'safe haven' to a 'terrorist'? Did Minneapolis provide safe haven to Zacarias Moussaoui prior to 9/11? How does running through tires in the desert, carrying AK47s, prepare you to fly planes into buildings? Why did we start spending trillions of dollars to fight terrorism since 9/11? Would they have you believe that some sort of epidemic of insanity is spreading the globe creating this threat? Why the focus on airports given that people congregate in wide variety of ways which would allow hundreds, if not thousands, of them to be attacked on a daily basis?
And ultimately, if we are truly trying to spread 'freedom and democracy' around the world, why do we routinely supply money and weapons to dictators?
If we suppose to accept this unending war, with its untold costs in lives, liberty and treasure, shouldn't there at least be an intellectually honest debate over whether it is even practical let alone moral?
Can you answer me Charlie?

Dictators often say they are protecting the ppl. I'd have to side with ppl, who are saying enough is enough. Besides patting ppl hasn't stopped smuggling. This is like trying to prevent the spread of disease and invasive species, and the only real answer is to stay home. I'm not sure that efforts at cleaning it up won't eventually make it all worse, like bed bugs. And I'm fairly convinced that cybersecurity is becoming the biggest boondoggle in DC. The answer there seems the same.
