re:post 51

While I admit to an agenda, one thing that I don't hear much of on FR and not at all in the traditional media is that all of the passengers on the aircraft were disarmed sheep being led to the slaughter. Just think about whqt might have been prevented if one or more of the passengers were armed with a gun.

I feel that it needs to be put right into the face of Sara Brady and her kind that they have the blood of every single one of these victims on their hands. If I get the chance, I will.

Even if there were a permissive policy on passenger gun carrying on commercial aircraft, you couldn't necessarily count on a citizen having one there when needed. What's needed IMHO is to arm the pilots and beef up the cockpit doors.

Bump!

At the very least, any police officer, on or off duty, should be allowed (encouraged) to carry his weapon whenever he rides a plane. Since carrying weapons in airports or in Federal buildings is covered by Federal law, perhaps the Federal government could start issuing concealed carry permits good in any airport or federal building to anyone who passes a security check. It sure would be nice to have some armed good guys riding the planes, not just armed bad guys.
