SCRAP TSA and start over.

Let me get this straight: a guy buys a one-way ticket in cash with no baggage, and tries to blow up the plane. Some poor fool goes the wrong way through a checkpoint at Newark, and the entire airport is shut down for several hours. Now TSA arrests Michael Yon for refusing to say how much money he makes.

It was bad enough when the organization's day-to-day operations treated law-abiding citizens like cattle. But this is strike three. Scrap the organization as it exists and start over. As it is currently set up, it achieves none of its goals. It isn't preventing the bad guys from coming in, it's causing massive delays over false alarms, and it's making false arrests of innocent citizens.
Yes. And let Dutch passengers fly free.
