Should airports be more responsible for their own security.

Think before you answeert this now. For decades now, the security has been in the hands of federal authorities. ron paul, love hin or hate him, raised a vadlid point. If the airlines had been running their own security and allowed things like pilots and flight hosts to be armed AND TRAINED, at least with tasers would 0/11 have been a successfull attack? Think about it. and after the attacks, what was the response, throw more government authority at it and add more layers of idiocy and make flying 1000 time more complicated than it should be. And it is widely accepted we are no more safe on arlines than we were before 9/11. this has been shown time after time in security tests and breaches. So do you think now it's time to put the ones who know their business better in charge of the security on airlines? Is this a better solution than the bloated and ineffective, not to mention expensive federaly run system we now have in place?

yes, I would be all for airline security going private. It's not as easy as it would seem though. There would still have to be some regulating authority. I mean, every airport couldn't have a different standard and set of rules for us to learn. Could you imagine how much of a pain air travel would be if each airport we went into had it's own way of doing things? It is a good idea, but there are a lot of details that would have to be hashed out.

According to my point of view, Airports are 100 percent responsible for their securities. and if airport workers do their job with full fare then there are no chance of unwanted things. thanks
