It's not just sloppiness at our airports. It's a matter of actual terrorist infiltration, IMHO.

FBI is executing search warrants in South Florida and Daytona Beach. Given that there just aren't many Moslems in Florida due to the high concentration of Jews there, could this be home-grown, just like Oklahoma City? Could this be due to the recent major rift in the Cuban-American National Foundation, in which the hard-liners left the organization, or is this an "anti-Global" thing?

Here's how easy it is (or could have been for me) to sneak a weapon through security: Recently went to Atlanta to pick up a baby parrot. For return flight, baby parrot (with BIG beak) is in the standard pet carrier that fits under the seat. I get to xray machines, but don't want to put parrot in carrier on the conveyor, nor can I take her out because of the BIG BEAK. So rather than have me walk through with carrier in hand, they take the carrier and put it on a counter. I walk through the xray and pick up the carrier on the other side. All while the girls working there oohed and ahhhed over the parrot. The carrier NEVER went through any kind of examination. There could have been grenades, pistols, broken down AK-47, whatever under the towel in the carrier. I just shook my head as I walked down to my gate.
