I guess I'll have to give up my dream of that part time job at Intercontinental.

Gee, seems to make sense to me. One wonders why that wasn't the policy in the first place :rolleyes:

This entire organization has to be the most useless waste of funds that I have ever seen. I wish someone would kindly tell me exactly what they hope to prevent when they take somebody's nail clipper away. The machines are now turned up so high that you cannot get through them if you have a single penny in your pocket. I cannot get through them with the eyelets of my shoes.

What exactly is someone going to do with a nail clipper? And, a nail clipper will NOT make it through the X-ray machine.

Didn't anybody bother to tell these *******s that the cockpit doors are all completely reinforced and that it is virtually impossible to hijack an airplane today? As the Israelis have stated many times: If you can't get in the cockpit, you can't hijack the airplane. All you need to prevent is a gun. That's it.

This administration is wasting 20 billion dollars per year preventing nail clippers from going onto airplanes.

Meanwhile, any terrorist can ship a container into this country with very good odds of not being caught.


Any terrorist can construct a rudimentary truck bomb (similar to Oklahoma City) and take out an entire building anytime they want.

Why is this administration driving the vehicle by looking behind them to see what occurred in the past?

Rant off.
