    And BTW, I'm tired of these assholes making it much harder for the rest of us to fly. I mean, fuck, this is all we need: justification for the no liquids in the cabin rule. What a fucker.

    The "no phone in flight rule" in airlines is primarily because cell phones can be used as a detonator for an explosive. Which doesn't really guarantee much because anything that can put out a signal can be used as such.

    Which is a shame because it has little to do with the airline itself and everything to do with the politicization of airport security.

    What does that mean?

    Any relation to the fact that airport security is now required to:

    - Treat Mohamed Atta like great aunt Bertha
    - Treat great aunt Bertha like Mohamed Atta

    ?

    Maybe the fact 108 Republicans voted against the 2010 appropriation bill for the Department of Homeland Security which included funding for explosives detection systems and other aviation security measures that could have possibly detected this? Maybe the fact the top Transportation Security Administraion spot has been empty for the past year simply because the nominee is not anti-union?

    I could go on and on, what with me being an intelligence personnel in the military and my wife a TSA supervisor at LAX but I'm sure they'll be some political jerkfest started off by people who have no idea how things work in these kinds of scenarios.

    Red or Blue, the shit needs to be fixed.

    EDIT: Go troll elsewhere.

    The number of ppl on the Do No Fly list is only 10% of the "Watch these dodgy ppl" list.

    Put all the Dodgy ppl on the No Fly, or extra-super interrogate all them instead of simply casting the same wide net of restrictions that do nothing but make travel annoying for the 99.99% of us.

    Also, I hope I never have to listen to douches on their cell phones on a plane. Better yet, it's a great excuse for me to unplug for a few hours when travelling.

    Needs more profiling and risk assessment instead of funding another government bureaucracy.

    In the wake of serious incidents that threaten hundreds of people, I would like more strength projected from the administration. It's actually very important. It's lacking in this situation.

    The TSA instead has decided to annoy its passengers more instead of actually making airlines safer. Obama and the gang have played out the typical strategy of pretending (I hope) to not take the situation seriously.

    Needs more talk of killing Islamic crazies.




    Why is it that one hundred percent of attempts of airline terrorism are Muslim extremists? Can we start scanning the Muslims yet? We just had two hundred people saved by pure luck. Full body scanners won't change the fact that they're all Muslims.

    Tell me, what exactly qualifies one as a "Muslim extremist" that would make them identifiable for such a screening?

    Because last I checked, normal people tend to look about the same as they do.

    Last time I looked, swarthy males looked like Muslim extremists.

    This is the only answer. It will be something like a patch that will be worn on a band on the upper arm so we can see it right away.

    I was thinking more of a collar but arm band works too. Could skip the patch and go straight for a tat across the forehead.

    I wonder if this was in response to the US sponsored attacks in Yemen that killed about 23 children.
