Everybody knows someone who's been stopped in an airport for carrying something that DHS perceives as the next airplane hijacker weapon of choice; such obviously deadly implements like toothpicks, nail clippers, bic lighters, or matches. And really, think about the damage that a terrorist could do to the human body with nail clippers... creepy.
Anyway, by now, most of us have likely made statements to the effect that DHS is "unacceptable" or "bogged down by the wrong priorities." I know I have. However, it's nice to see members of congress agreeing with that assessment in a public forum.
