Want to get scared out of your wits?

Yeah, it's scary that women this stupid are allowed on planes.

How dare those nasty middle eastern men use the bathroom?

You might want to read the entire article before joking about it:

Terrorist bid to build bombs in mid-flight: Intelligence reveals dry runs of new threat to blow up airliners

Islamic militants have conducted dry runs of a devastating new style of bombing on aircraft flying to Europe, intelligence sources believe.

The tactics, which aim to evade aviation security systems by placing only components of explosive devices on passenger jets, allowing militants to assemble them in the air, have been tried out on planes flying between the Middle East, North Africa and Western Europe, security sources say.

...The... Transportation Security Administration issued an urgent memo detailing new threats to aviation and warning that terrorists in teams of five might be planning suicide missions to hijack commercial airliners, possibly using common items...such as cameras, modified as weapons.

...Components of IEDs [improvised explosive devices]can be smuggled on to an aircraft, concealed in either clothing or personal carry-on items... and assembled on board. In many cases of suspicious passenger activity, incidents have taken place in the aircraft's forward lavatory.

Let me guess....You didn't really read the article. Seems like a lot more people than the "stupid" woman were concerned.

No doubt dude. Last I checked our constitution demands the separation of church and state! If their religion says slaughter americans, then by golly who are we to shove our values down their throats? Some people just want to disenfrenchfry everyone!

Hey, chump, watch what you're saying. You owe this lady an apology. She's a American who loves her family and loves her country, something that you'll probably never understand. What the hell is your agenda anyway? I think that your turban is tied a little to tight.

This was not just the opinion of the reporter. The crew noted these people acting strangely too.

I would rather have that 'stupid' woman as a fellow passenger than someone who finds such highly suspicious behavior something to make lame jokes about.

Not to mention the stupid cabin attendants, the other stupid passenger crying in fear and the stupid government law enforcement people who conducted the interrogations in LA. All were stupid because a few innocent men wanted to use the bathroom. Real stupid.

After a complete reading I must say that was one of the most frightening things I've read in a while.

Sir, I will be the first to say that there is nothing unusual about using the bathroom....but when individuals ACT as a group, that is weird.

If you would have read the article, the plane was packed with air marshals and met with agents, with the crew concerned about the activity as well. The Arabs were detained.

They were not just using the bathroom.

Either you forgot the sarcasm tag or you did not read the article. This was not just a case of Middle-Eastern men using the bathroom.
