Because the security is supposedly there to keep people from running away?

He didn't scale the fence in Hawaii, he scaled the fence in Santa Clara, CA. But either way, security should be better at any US airport.

The TSA is not responsible for security at the airport grounds. This incident merely shows that the San Jose airport did a poor job. I'm not aware of any other such incident at a US airport. Why is the OP projecting this is as a urgent problem?

Should airports review their grounds security? Sure.

It wasn't a conservative white person who put that in place and NYC seemed to support him. No you just thought you would take a cheap shot.

Well, that did not take long.

Based on what I have read and have heard on the radio , it's miracle that this kid survived the journey.

Looks like he is black too. Could have been a Somali Muslim with a bomb. What is wrong with TSA?
