The building that houses SoCal TRACON is of conventional construction

So security guards have people taking off their shoes at every airport
in the U.S., while a single suicide bomber could knock out ATC for half
the Southwest? Is the government really looking in the right places for
vulnerabilities?

Different impact. Knocking down an airliner with a bomb will do as it is
intended and kill all on board. Aside from killing the people in the TRACON,
the cessation of air traffic control will not cause all the planes under its
control to come crashing down or into each other. They will find a way to
land VFR with a good chance of landing safely. Either that or deviate to
another manned sector or center.
