That's a great idea!

Start a wiki site that publishes detailed ways to cause harm using 
currently allowed ordinary objects.

Make the harm bad enough and the objects common enough and the site 
well-known enough until everyone is finally forced to accept the stupid 
obvious fact that all the airline security is just a huge collossal 
cisrcus act that does not make anyone the slightest bit safer. An 
expensive an wasteful one. Even if no one cares about human dignity any 
more, they still care about money.

The only way you can handle humans in certain safety, if you are not 
going to allow them to handle problems among themselves directly, is if 
they are all drugged into unconsciousness. Short of that you are just 
wasting everyone's time and a lot of money and degrading the overall 
quality of life for all concerned.

Oh, and better host that wiki site somewhere safer than wikileaks, since 
it doesn't matter if you're doing anything wrong, if the gubbermint 
doesn't like it yer f^5ked simple as that.

ugh.
