TSA rules only detect known terrorists and others with
criminal records.

If this is so, it seems the new requirements WOULD HAVE detected the 9-11
terrorists. I say this because several of the hijackers were in the
country illegally, using forged documents (passports and visas) to
illegally obtain driver's licenses. (I confirmed this in a news search.)


Surely, the TSA would pick up forged passports, especially the new
passports now being required for foreigners entering the country.

Maybe, but in general background checks look for records of
known activity, they have to show [prove] that you are
forbidden with positive records. No records probably will
pass the test.

I can design a level of security that will prevent all crime
and terrorism, it will involve having at least 1 policeman
every 50 square feet in every town and city, 1 policeman for
every civilian on every train, plane or bus. Everybody will
be tattooed with a bar code on their face for
identification.
Everybody will need permission before leaving their house,
school or work.

But then who will protect us from the police?
