The NBC Washington headline says it all: Metro Opens Bags

Metro Transit Police Chief Michael Taborn “says he is not worried about a trend in terror threats against the transit system,” WTOP reports. And so WMATA will begin random bag searches at Metro stations soon.

Are you as confused as we are? He’s “not worried”, so because he’s “not worried”, metro police will do random bag searches?

Unless they’re looking for Christmas present ideas, they’re worried.
