I guess we need yet another dept formed employing thousands so that information will be shared ?
And they still didn't. The head of Danish security said all they needed was to have run him through the database. Very simple. You don't need more agencies.

I know that..heck you don't even need the DHS to share info..just access to the DB's. But no..the government doesn't work that way.

This is copied from the TSA website for ostomy bags and dressings. I am sure they will use the same policy for adult diapers

Advise the Security Officer if you have an ostomy or urine bag. You will not be required to expose these devices for inspection.

The Security Officer will not ask you to, nor will he or she, remove a dressing during the screening process.

In the event a Security Officer is not able to determine that a dressing is free of prohibited items via a pat-down, you will be denied access to the sterile area.
How does TSA do invasive pat-downs on adults who must wear diapers? - FlyerTalk Forums

Alright so lets just nix security all together. Is that a better solution you think?

Of course not. Bomb sniffing dogs plus the metal detectors plus profiling.

Ahhh,what a sensible approach.

Better we do something that doesn't work but make those who do not think a lot about such things FEEL better than to actually DO something that works.
