Authorities say the men got through a Transportation Security Administration checkpoint, but were stopped at the gate after someone got suspicious and phoned city police. They were held overnight and released this afternoon.

Good Lord. There must be a whole lot to this story they aren't telling us!!!!!! I Hope.

I felt the same way. Oh, and to everyone else flaming me for my comment on a round going through a bulkhead and causing the plane to break up, well, I appologize for stating things I have little knowledge of.

Anyway, I would venture to guess that this may just be another one of those "let's test the TSA" hijinx. Nevertheless, these fools should have the book thrown at them and be put away for a long time.

As for weapons on an airplane. I guess I wouldn't mind that. I would allow me to carry my .45 ACP with me where ever I went. And I think you guys are right; It would cut down on hijacking if only for the fact that they would soon become extinct. LOL
