Problem is: there is 0% evidence that she was a potential threat in any conceiveable way. That someone waved the "she could be a terrorist!" boogeyman is NOT justification of broad revocation of rights.
If there's that much concern, public busses shouldn't be entering the facility. Checking that everyone has something vaguely resembling ID sure isn't going to provide safety.
"Problem is: there is 0% evidence that she was a potential threat in any conceiveable way."
I respect your opinion. Here is the problem. I was not there, you were not there (I assume) and when is the last time the MSM reported all the details in an unbiased manner? So, neither of us know everything about this. You are free to make the assertion that there is 0% evidence. It does not mean a whole lot. In order to get to this 0%, exactly what was the evidence and or reason for the request to see ID?
Evidence, reason, protocol? If you were on the bus and witnessed the whole event and then spoke to the grandmother and the police and had a good understanding of threat level and policy, then I could better appreciate your point. I don't recall anyone saying she was a terrorist, did I miss this? Please show it to me.
I think certainly there is concern about a bus entering a 'secure' facility. What do you suggest, that everyone hoof it to and from work, or that some reasonable measures be taken to try and do something vs doing nothing? Finally I don't know where the construct of something "vaguely resembling an ID" comes from. Please elaborate. If it looked suspicious, then the search would have been successful, perhaps.
Great point.
Thing is the bus is only entering the facility as a convenience to people working there, or doing business there.
Solution: stop the bus at the gate, and let those people walk into the facility.
