Maybe we should just wing it with security. Spend some money on propaganda to make everyone believe everything will be top notch, then go bare bones with the actual security. Hand out some police uniforms to existing volunteers, free whistles for everyone, and hire a few mall cops, park rangers, and seniors with flashlights to round things out.
Security is mostly about perception anyway. If they brits could fool the germans with cardboard tanks in WW2, surely we could fool a few terrorists.
