One-way ticket purchased in cash, NO checked baggage, NO passport but still boarded, SECOND passenger was arrested, sniff dog did alert on *other* carry-on bag..!
It’s occurring again right now in detroit, same airline, passenger from Nigeria with no luggage behaved suspiciously and then barricaded himself in the rest room.
Tired of this crap.
There is no system, Mr. Janet Napolitano. You guys are flying blind, and it is just a matter of time.
People should stop flying altogether until people such as these are banned from all flights all the time.
I think it’s time for a serious lockdown. Maybe not grounding all flights, but I think it’s time to call out the national guard to all airports and to start ejecting and arresting suspicious people regardless of proof or probably cause...martial law at airports in other words.
The blogger stole my thunder a bit but my new tagline is ‘profiling luggage instead of people is futile.’
Shows you how two face obozo is! will he ever learn? I doubt it~~~~
There have been ELEVEN terror attempts since Obama took office !!!
We are not at war with bombs of any particular design, or guns, or rusty knives for the hacking off of heads, or even “terror” itself. We are at war with a totalitarian political ideology masquerading as a religion. Its adherents want to subjugate all who are not of them to their will, or kill them. That is, us. And as long as that belief system has many millions of adherents (and it does), even if only a small percentage of them have sufficient competence to kill the millions that they hope to in order to achieve their goals, they will, as technology continues to advance, succeed.The world does not fear Nazis today, not because we destroyed their weapons, but because we broke the back of their belief system. And this new totalitarian enemy is much more dangerous, because it doesn’t just worship power. It revels in death and destruction, even its own. We are at war with jihad, and that war will not end until radical Islam has no more adherents. How to achieve that end is unknown, but few of the possibilities seem very palatable.
5. This all has a feeling of deja vu to it. We are going to spend the next days and weeks discussing all the things that we discussed eight years ago. The same stupid arguments will be made that are refuted by politically incorrect reality, but at the end, airline travel will be even more onerous, fewer will choose to fly for short trips, the airlines will take it in the shorts again (and probably need another bailout), and the incompetents at the TSA will be rewarded. We will be less free and, in that hoary old phrase, the terrorists will have won, without blowing up a single plane.
