Yes, such as the 09/11 hijackers.
The screening worked. The firearm was detected, the pilot arrested. No buildings fell. The world did not come to a screeching halt. Time did not stand still, and you're still here.

Get a rope. Someone burn a cross, and dont forget to throw eggs and toilet paper at the guy's garage. No need for the police when there are airline keyboard commandos on patrol, ready to shame on a moment's notice. Thank God you're here. This guy nearly got away with it.
Shame. Shame on him. A moment of silence, if you will, so that the more self-righteous among us may focus on their anger and hate.
