Geez, can I fly on a Fedex cargo plane?
Are they Mohammeds?
Nigerians with Bladder Problems?????
Now the incompetent govt. is, as usual, overreacting to every possible passenger behavior considered “strange”. How is it the Israelis have had their act together for decades screening passengers and preventing incidents, while “Security Forces” still perform their jobs like the Keystone Cops?
"The system is working"
If TSA is cracking down on two men acting strangely they can have a field-day in Seattle!
Pingaroo.
John Smith, 55, Warsaw NY and George Jones, 76, Tie Siding, WY?
Local Rags wouldn’t specify the ethnicity of the men. Wonder if they were trolling for US Airways settlement money?
TSA: 2 passengers talking suspiciously removed from plane (Phoenix- Sky Harbor)
(snipped)
Suzanne Trevino, a spokesperson with Transportation Security Administration (TSA), said US Airways Flight 192 was inbound from the Orlando Airport when several passengers reported seeing two other passengers talking suspiciously.
FBI spokesperson Manuel Johnson said a female passenger overheard the two Middle Eastern men speaking in a foreign language and reported them to airline staff.
According to Johnson, the two men were talking about being late for their flight and not being able to shop at the airport before boarding their flight to Phoenix.
The men were reportedly watching the movie The Kingdom on a portable DVD player while talking, and the female passenger, who was sitting near the men, thought this was suspicious and reported them to flight personnel.
TSA and officers from the Phoenix Police Department met the plane at the gate when it arrived at Sky Harbor Saturday night.
Johnson said the two men were removed from the flight and questioned by the FBI.
It was determined the men had done nothing wrong and they were released and allowed to continue on to their final destination, Los Angeles.

More Rogue Amish, I presume?
Call me a proud American profiler, but every Middle Easterner or anyone that looks like one, is suspect to me.
