what about putting a lock on your luggage? i don't know how messed up the airport security systems are in the state but i travel quite a bit from canada to europe (at least 4 to 8 times a year) and never had anything stolen on my trips!
Lately theres is the system, i don't know if its available in the states, but here at the aiport you can have someone secure wrap your luggage with shrink wrap for like 2-3$ so you know than it hasn't been opened when you get it back!
