For most it means our right to travel by common carrier airline is restricted because of the morally intolerable searches and abuses to person that are now commonplace. For some there is alternative via private planes, or privately chartered flights.
It is even MORE troublesome that similar searches are now becoming common at courthouses.
I'm sure 99% of the tickets were sold and paid for in advance. Perhaps someone from Philly could chime in on this.
I agree concessions would have been low.
It is troubling indeed.
Faddish dementia has replaced common sense and honest respect for the dignity of fellow humans. Every one of the airline bombers on 9/11 and since could easily have been noticed by someone aware enough and with common sense.
Actor James Woods noticed Mohammed Atta and some of his murderous crew of terrorists some weeks before 9/11 on a flight to LA.
The behavioral cues of suicide bombers are, in fact, the strongest observable signature they have — no scanner or pat down can improve upon it.
This is the first reasonable thing I’ve heard come from a democrat’s mouth.
