This is precisely why there will never be another hijacking, ever, of a US aircraft. The TSA Kabuki show has nothing to do with keeping us safe in the air, it's the passengers who will put a stop to any attempts to take down a flight.

Exactly!

Any regular traveler has learned after 9/11 that a hijacking is a death sentence. So there is nothing to lose in attacking hijackers.

I am hypervigilant when I fly now.

i'd prefer going down fighting rather than waiting placidly in my seat for someone to save me.
