You people standing up for America Air Lines, who kicks the good guys off their planes and allows the bad guys on will be eating lot of crow before this incident comes to an end.

LOL.

We just want security measures in place that (hopefully) will make it (relatively) safe to fly. I prefer an airline that takes a reasonably cautious approach to security -- when in doubt err on the side of caution. I don't think anyone is in favor of allowing "bad guys" on flights, but most of the security screening is done prior to boarding and outside the control of the airlines.

If profiling was not a significant part of this incident, then we will have been right all along. On the other hand, if profiling was a part of this incident, then I will still be happy since profiling is a perfectly rational approach to screening.

How do you like your crow, well done?

. He admitted to not properly filling out the paperwork for carrying a weapon; not once, but twice. He also admitted to losing his temper with the Captain because he was asked for his ID five separate times. When he asked why he was denied future boarding, I explained that I could not expose AA crews or passengers to abuse. He said he was being discriminated against, wanted my bosses [sic] name, and threatened that he would have my job...
