Great way to weaken airport security. Failed successfully

I mean, the TSA is pretty fucking worthless from a security standpoint. This would be just as worthless, but 100x more violent and racist.

Not just weaken what security there is, but introduce more problems. Just like everywhere else they've gone. Wonder how the airlines feel about that potential?
