I have exposed the system to be a sham

Normally when I travel I plan on checking a bag (as camera stuff takes up too much of a carry-on to fit everything else) so I put any liquids I need to bring there.

Today, I just had a carry-on bag but I had put the liquids in a different pocket than I remembered so I assumed I just forgot them when packing. Those liquids went through the scanner and the person didn't even notice. It's all a sham.

It is so annoying to deal with and yet do they have a single instance of it stopping anything? I bet that rule has a death toll and I bet it hasn't done shit.

Shoe thing also fake (Canadian security don't even make you do it. That's a TSA special) but it still feels more real
