Agreed - and also at what point does "the inconvenience" outweigh "the risk" ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terri Schehr Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I'd rather be proactive than reactive. But that's the American way! We're always good at finding the black box. Smdh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you travel much by air they have already won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also had lots of young people. At finals, at a minimum there will be 1,800 young people associated with the corps, not to mention those in the stands. The yellow school buses are there for high school students. Terrorists don't care about numbers, they are concerned with impact. So DCI and LOS should be concerned. I believe that it's a prime target too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched people with all access badges pulling luggage behind them not even be stopped. It's like if you got the credentials they don't care what's in the luggage bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much all large events (excluding Super Bowl, All Star Games, World Series, Finals, etc) held at stadiums use Security Theater to invoke a feeling of security. Generally those metal detectors and short checks do nothing. Security Theater even though it's very unsecure, it's secure. Alot of people will back down really easily if they even have the smallest risk of not being able to follow through. That's right everyone is your pal.
