    It has to be later than that.

    In the 1960's and 70's It wasn't this crazy. We never heard of mass shootings, Islamic terrorists, etc. You could actually go into a government building without having to pass through a metal detector. You could even get on a plane without the TSA.

    Texas Tower shooting, 1966.

    Metal detectors in airports started in the 70s with the hijackings.

    Whadd'ya mean? In the 1930's there were people like Bonnie and Clyde, John Dillinger and incidents like the St Valentines Day Massacre!

    You don't hear about common things in the news. How many news stories are there about fatal car accidents?
