I'm glad to see that you guys continued the honorable practice of jumping to conclusions while I was gone
Not only was that only for international flights entering the US, it's also already been DROPPED by the TSA.
I flew back last night and saw no exceptionally long lines, no extra security, no one being patted down. The security line took maybe 10% longer than usual, and they actually had someone watching the x-ray monitor as your bags when through. This was in a major airport that was still reeling from holiday traffic and massive storm cancellations.
