Hoplophobia update

So a citizen went through the security check at the airport with his gun. Apparently realizing his error, turns around and hands it over to the TSA guys. The good-intentioned man then gets charged with a misdemeanor. The news report continues:

This latest breach at Reagan National has air travelers disappointed but not discouraged. Passenger Rob Padgett said, “Their security is tight, it's tighter than it's ever been, so whatever the number of incidents is, it's not many, so, I trust it and I feel safe.”

So a good guy has in one instance not only proven security to be faulty, he has disarmed himself. And that makes it feel safe? This kind of backwards thinking has got to end.
