Of course it's unworkable, that means the TSA couldn't pocket the things they want or keep all this extra money. I watched a documentary on the TSA and airport security places and the TSA gathers BARRELS of nail clippers and the most BIZARRE stuff they confiscate from passengers. I would still like to know how someone hijacks a plane with a pair of nail clippers. There are some things which obviously should not be allowed on any flight. These are guns, knives, etc. But some of the things, like nail clippers, are just a sign of massive overcompensation and show the lack of common sense among those who make the rules. I'm still trying to understand how they took control of planes with box cutters. Yes, they can definitely cut someone but unlike a gun several large men should be able to take down a person with a box cutter. Thankfully now we've learned NOT to be cooperative and just do what these people want. If the all of crews and passengers had fought back on that horrible day knowing what was happening life might be very different now. So that brings me back to the original question, just how do you hijack a plane with a nail clipper? Don't you think several passengers would be able to control someone and get it away from them?
