Today I look at the power of viral video and how it can make a big problem into a humungous problem.
We are certainly all aware of the new TSA mandates regarding personal search in airports if you wave off the new full body scanning machines. I find this to be intrusive and in many instances counterproductive. Since every recent terrorist criminal has gotten through screening before attempting to do damage, the current screening hardware is always one generation older then the minds of the Islamic terrorist. They operate by seeking out ways to bypass current means of screening. That is why we never see any of these losers caught at a security checkpoint. The Israeli system of psychological questioning and profiling has been pretty much full proof and should teach us a lesson into the direction we should take in the future.
We all know the feeling of getting the page in the wee hours to respond to an incident that requires the attention of the public information office.
