Airport Security Flaw



OK, so airport security has decided that liquid and semi-solid explosives stand as a great danger to air travel.

Now you can't take make-up, sports drinks, non-prescription medicine, or bottled water along with your carry-on luggage. And if you try to, what happens? Security takes your shit away, and tosses it in a bin like what we see in the picture above.

Is... is that really a smart thing to do? You confiscate a potential explosive off of someone, and then you DUMP it into a bin full of other potential explosives.

Now I'm not a rocket scientist, but maybe dumping volatile explosive liquids onto one another isn't such a great idea. Sure, you'll be saving an airplane from getting blown up, but the trade off is having an entire airport terminal explode. Not exactly what I'd call "sufficient security measures", but what do I know?
