This was foreseeable.
People have a tendancy to cry for tighter security, especially after an "incident". What people do not want, is to be inconvenienced, in any way, by increased security. People whine, security loosens, something goes "boom", people cry about lax security measures. I've seen this play out before. When I was in the Air Force, back in the mid 80's, after the bombing of the Marine barracks, in Beirut, HQ SAC buttoned up the headquarters complex. That lasted for about a year, then little by little all the security measures, that cost millions of dollars to implement, were whittled away, little by little, until things were back to the way they were.
