There's an old joke:
A: Elephants are really good at hiding in trees.
B: Wait, what? That can't be right. I've never seen an elephant in a tree.
A: Well, right. See how well they hide?
The TSA operates on pretty much the same principle. There is enormous expense and hassle, including a lot of just aggressively personal abuse (just this week, I saw an old lady yelled at until she burst into tears, just because she had an artificial hip and didn't know what to do).
But there are no terrorist attacks.
See how well the TSA is protecting us from terrorist attacks?
Well...as usual, Adam Ruins Everything.
