TSA is more about deterring crime than stopping it.
Do you really think a well funded and organized terrorist group couldn't succeed because of TSA? I think they are on to bigger plans. Kinda like been there, done that. 3 or 4 hundred people is not spectacular enough anymore. There are a million things they could do that would kill more people than a plane load. We fixed the big problem with sealed cockpits.
and by crime i mean bringing a bomb on a plane

Everyone knows by now that you have to go through the TSA circus. Why not put the watches, cell phones, change, etc. into a pocket of the carry-on prior to going through? Many times I've seen the bins get turned over and everything dump. Saves time and clutter on the belt/slide.
That is exactly what I do when I am preparing to go through the "TSA circus". Everything of value I own goes into a zippered inside pocket of a carry on. Watches, jewelry, cameras, prescription drugs you name it. To many times TSA has rifled my checked bags and things have turned of missing. I quickly learned TSA never takes responsiblity for the missing items. Heck you can hardly get them to return a call to report the missing items much less file a claim. One TSA supervisior took 3 weeks to return a call and then refused to do anything about a missing piece of jewelry.
How do they know he left on a flight? He might have turned around and left the terminal.
Who designed the security cameras that saw the theft, but not the face?
How about a check system where you get a chit for the tray, and an airline employee takes the chit and returns the tray. Brass chits for economy, silver for business, and gold for first class. Pilots would get diamond chits, and cabin staff gets rainbow chits.
