Hey, the poster just cut and pasted the twit. It was in all caps. Give him a break.

Is that what you call it, a “twit”? Or is it “tweet”? I’m so uncool.

The justice dept has dropped charges against the 2 hijackers.

[GOPsterinMA]

Yep - I think you nailed it!

Was James Woods on the plane?

[ZX12R]

Two people smuggling one handgun? Or two people both smuggling a handgun?

[keepitreal]

Did they miss the guns in order to spend more time frisking her?

odumbo already apologizes for the “intrusive” and “unfriendly” security procedures

Doesnt say if it was smuggled onboard or simply placed with the luggage below.

Both should be prosecuted to the fullest extent.

"Two people, including a US Airways employee, were being questioned on Thursday morning after authorities at Philadelphia International Airport found a handgun on a flight bound for Arizona. According to preliminary information from investigators, someone waiting for a flight saw a passenger hand a bag to a US Airways employee to may have been authorized to bypass the security screening line. The witness reported the incident to the TSA. The bag was located on the plane and found to contain an unloaded 9mm handgun. The gun and the bag were confiscated, and the passenger and the US Airways employee were taken into custody for questioning. The rest of the plane was searched as a precaution. The FBI, Philadelphia police, and the TSA were continuing to investigate. The 7:10am US Airways flight from Philadelphia to Phoenix was canceled, and the 10:15am flight eventually took off about 11am."

Per the link above, a passeneger witnessed someone giving a bag to a US AIRWAYS EMPLOYEE, who them bypassed security and put the bag on the plane.

The passenger informed law enforcement.

[keepitreal]

I heard.

Isn’t it great that passengers are seeing this stuff, while those hired to do the job are frisking nuns, the elderly and the infirm?

[sauropod]
