I’d fix it so he could look directly down the back of his trousers to see if he had but crack.

75#s force quickly delivered in a fast twis accomplihes that results in a snapped next.

In May of 2009 my wife was unexpectedly hospitalized in Albuquerque, NM. I had been teaching a firearms course in Jackson Hole, Wyoming when I was called. In a panic, and still dressed in my security company’s uniform, I rushed to the airport and caught a flight which connected through Denver. In the waiting area for the DEN-ABQ flight, I noticed two young (in their late 20s to early 30s) Muslim men, their AMERICAN wives, and several children.

The men were in western dress. Although the wives were covered head-to-toe with only their eyes and Nike sports shoes showing, they were clearly recognizable by their Midwestern American accents.

When I boarded the flight, I identified myself to the flight attendant as a retired airline employee who had once been a sworn officer, and as one who would be willing to help in the event of a disruption in the cabin. Shortly before takeoff, one of the Muslim men (he was seated next to an overwing exit) got up and began walking his son to the front of the plane.

When ordered to sit down by the Flight Attendant, and to ring his call button “if this was an emergency”, he did so.

The F/A called the cockpit, then got up and walked back (with all passenger eyes on her). Seems “the child had to go to the bathroom”. She came up to me and asked “how long before we takeoff?” I was sitting in row 3 at the window, and could see we were #3 in line, with #1 on the runway. When I told her “3-4 minutes”, she went back; the man decided to wait until after takeoff.

As soon as the seat belt sign was turned off (5-6 minutes into the flight) one of the women came forward, entered the lav, and did not lock the door. When she had been in there for about a minute, the man and the child passed my row and sat down in seat 1C with the child on his lap. After another minute or two, the woman exited and the man and child entered the lav and locked the door. After several minutes they exited and returned to their seats.

Several minutes later the F/A came over to me, looking rather shaken, and showed me two razor blades wrapped in paper, and said “we found these under seat 1C”. Had I not been in the process of rushing to the emergency room, I would have made every passenger aware of what went on during the flight.

Upon landing, no one met the aircraft, and, after several minutes of watching their group casually waiting for their bags at the claim area, I gave up and headed off to the hospital.

I am left with the suspicion that my uniform (and me being mistaken for an armed police officer) may have cooled any ideas they might have had.

He is safer (despite the idiocy of Homeland Security and its retarded idiotic stepson the TSA) than if he were driving.

That's better.

You're welcome.

I think it is time for radical measures...in a perfect world, the US Government would federally deputize flying local and state LEA’s as FAMS and allow them to carry while flying. As of now, only those local/state LEA’s assigned to a JTTF with the FBI are allowed to fly armed. Ditto for our military. The sorriest expression of distrust towards our boys in uniforms is displayed when they go through the TSA security line and they are made to take their boots off, etc...we should instead allowing them to fly armed. Think about this...statistically speaking, we could have EVERY domestic and probably over 50% of international flights covered if we implemented something like this.

I would even go as far as allowing CCW licensees whom are Federal government employees be deputized..then again...it's time to wake up....will never happen in our hoplophobic society...

And a zebibah with no beard means the airline will shortly be selecting a new flight number.
