Backed-up, big time.

There was also a column in the NY Post on Tues advocating letting cops fly free, if they were armed. The idea was that it is a nice little perq, and no one in his right mind will try taking over a plane if there is an armed man on it.

Apparently the LIRR tried the same thing with its commuter rail. It worked.

I guess they could give regular people who carry a free _first class_ ride. The average person can outshoot the average cop, and shows better judgment and restraint in crisis situations.
