San Francisco pilot questions security.

YouTube pilot reveals himself | Chris Liu | Defends security video

Chris Liu appeared in a press conference Dec 29th explaining why he is dissatisfied with the present security arrangements at San Francisco Airport, which extends, presumably, to all airports in the US. (Include the UK and pretty well everywhere else in this criticism).
He sees as a fundemental flaw the non-screening of all the air side workers including the TSA personnel themselves. They have full air-side access simply by swiping a smart card to gain entry. His argument is simply that these people should either go through the same screening as the crews or the crews should go through the same entry procedure as these card holders.
He would prefer that they all go through the same procedures as the crews.
I have to say, I agree with him.
