What’s it gonna take for the Dept of Homeland Security to instruct the TSA to start profiling and teach the agents how to do it? By the way, what level of intelligence has profiled the TSA agents themselves?
Come on! A name like that, one way ticket purchased in cash are two huge reasons to question this dude. The fact that it was all over the news that an attempted terrorist plot was avoided should have certainly got someone to hold this guy for even a little extra questioning. CNN is on tv’s throughout every airport in the nation.
Like I always say, “It’s better to lucky that good anytime” and ladies & gentleman that’s what we were!
I thought that selling tickets for cash was halted after 9/11 — especially one way tickets.
Amazing! They are specifically looking for this particular guy and NO ONE THNKS TO FLAG HIS PASSPORT! After all, why would anyone suspect he might try to leave the country?
The inepitude of these people is ridiculous. I guess filling the Justice Dept. with people only experienced in representing Al Quaeda terrorists ain’t working out.
Oh, so this is why we go through the hassle of standing in lines, taking our laptops out of our bags as well as our ziplock bags of any small liquid or gel items, remove our shoes and all that other rigamorole at airport security.
Good to know. I'd hate to think that all of that was a waste of time.
This story credits the FBI with catching him. Maybe they made the arrest, but according to another story linked on Drudge, he was located by by an army airplane that was looking for his cell phone. They must have found it at the airport just before his plane took off.
Janet Incompetano gets no creds for this one, the jerk.
This one was just luck. If this guy had any idea how to make a bomb we would have had an explosion in Times Square.
Where did you fly them to? Hahahahahaha!!!
Janet was terrible in Arizona, with the Nigerian Muslim on Christmas day, this mess, and whatever she does in future.
Hopefully, never as a judge
Before Duh-bya turned these clowns into federal agents, they were minimum-wage employees whose only training consisted of watching a 45-minute videotape.
No telling what sort of training they received after they were federalized. Not a lot, from what it seems.
Total luck that the bomb did not work, luck that the perp was found on that airplane, and...
This country is slowly ‘turning Turk’.
“...we would have had an explosion in Times Square.”
.
And Americans may have yawned, turned over, and fallen asleep again.
Where did you fly them to? Hahahahahaha!!!
Wasn’t easy...ever tried herding the little suckers?
TSA = FAIL = DEFUND immediately.
Well, according to Janet, this is what happens when the "system" works.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, while refusing to criticize any agency Tuesday morning, said Shahzad was "clearly on the plane and shouldn't have been." >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The time is coming soon when political correctness will earn these liberals rather glorious and overdue Darwin Awards.I will applaud that day. Waht A$$hats! At least the patriots got him despite everyting the liberasl could do tio give him a head start. Now watch him disappear for months so that we can get no onformatuion about the "War of Terror " that can no ;onger bve called a war on terror. The perp will be quietly charged with a politically correct misdemeanor, after singing his untrue intell story out falsely for Holder.
To bad they didn't give him a gun and a 30 second head start, which would have been more than he gave NYC if the bomb had gone off.
No but he gets bonus miles. For next time.
Leftists first!
and “deliberately letting him, (the TERRORIST), on the plane to see if he interacted with any accomplices” does not sit too well with me. You LET a terrorist on the plane. Aren’t we trying to keep them OFF of the planes?
