Stopping terrorism is the goal. We use filters. No filter is perfect.
The gate crasher is not what those filters are seeking. Readers may have made a serious assumption error. They 'assumed' a system designed to intercept armed persons will catch gate crashers. Did he carry a gun or bomb? If so, then the filter failed. But he did not carry terrorist equipment nor was he a terrorist. Therefore the filters worked as designed.
Security filters were not designed to catch the gate crasher. As best we can tell, the filters worked perfectly. No terrorism succeeded. That was the goal.
