After the September 11 attacks, commercial airline pilots were allowed to carry guns if they completed a federal-safety program. No longer would unarmed pilots be defenseless as remorseless hijackers seized control of aircraft and rammed them into buildings.
Now President Obama is quietly ending the federal firearms program, risking public safety on airlines in the name of an anti-gun ideology.
The Obama administration this past week diverted some $2 million from the pilot training program to hire more supervisory staff, who will engage in field inspections of pilots.
This looks like completely unnecessary harassment of the pilots. The 12,000 Federal Flight Deck Officers, the pilots who have been approved to carry guns, are reported to have the best behavior of any federal law enforcement agency. There are no cases where any of them has improperly brandished or used a gun. There are just a few cases where officers have improperly used their IDs.
Fewer than one percent of the officers have any administrative actions brought against them and, we are told, virtually all of those cases “are trumped up.”

I saw that today. I hope it riles a lot of pilots and stewards/stewardesses for that matter. And passengers, of course. Obama did this secretly too. Not surprised.

And Kennedy has been in Congress for 40 plus, while Senator Jim Demint has only been there since 2004. Time means squat.
But they should all be prosecuted as sexual perverts for their recent perverted behavior, led by that guy Obama. He’s the worst for screwing the American People IN PUBLIC!!!!
Yep I believe sex in public is a crime (except in New Orleans).
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sharia law like in Jolly Old England. Neighborhoods where the police are afraid to go like in Jolly Old England. Fear of “Asian Youths” like in Jolly Old England.
As long as we are afraid of “CAIR”, as long as we apologise when we “offend” a muslim, as long as we fold and put in foot baths, as long as we allow burkas in stores and government buildings, as long as we keep our birth rate down and watch theirs rise, the more we move toward being dominated and murdered by them.

If the pilots don’t refuse to fly, I just don’t know what to say.....they need to spit in his eye. God knows the public will support the pilots.
I am so bleeping sick of that port-a-teleprompter excuse of a president, I could just hurl.
Can’t we the people have a vote/recall/impeachment? Can’t WE demand it?
You wrote: Capt. “Sulley” would be a good one to bring this to the attention of the American public.
THAT IS A GREAT IDEA!
Then those flying Bambi around on AF1 and M1 should be stripped of guns.
I hate being in a position where I'm thinking about all these tin-foil scenarios, but the present executive administration is not letting up on us. He's attempting to reach into each and every one of our lives in direct and indirect ways.

Obama out now!
I liked what you had to say, so I sent a reply.
The idea that 4 planes go down because the weapon of choice was box cutters is ridiculous to me.
Obama responds "What Air Marshalls program?"
Everything that this man has done since entering the white house has done damage to this country. He is not on our side.
yep. Mineta was a sickie. Totally wrong for the token-'rat-in- the-cabinet, an early Bush clinker.
All Totalitarian leaders believe in that mantra “let no good crisis goes to waste”. The Soviets and China are teaming up to take full advantage to this economic crisis to destroy or seriously undermine the U.S. Obama is going to take us willingly to our demise.
Please Conservatives stand up and fight for the USA.
Ping.
Obama Ends 9/11 Policy Allowing Pilots to Carry Guns (The “Messiah”)
