Greyhound Lines suspended bus services across the United States after at least three people were killed in a crash that television reports attributed to a passenger attack on the bus driver.

Isn't this an OVER-REACTION -- for a single-bus-event, somewhere in the country. I can't imagine Greyhound Bus Lines suspending all bus service across the country -- because of something like this.

If they did that, then either they're idiots -- or -- there is something more here that the public is not being told. So, what is it?

I disagree. When we grounded all planes on 9/11 I have heard several news articles about groups of arab speaking men arguing and suddenly leaving departure gates. I also heard that a passenger on the bus said the man who attacked the driver was anxiously asking for the time repeatedly before the attack. It does not take much to figure there may be a connection. All we need to look at is the actions in Israel to see this is the way the terrorists will act.

They want a piece of the billion dollar bailout the airlines are getting. Good business posture.

Yes, I think it is a BIG overreaction. Maybe Greyhound is lookin' for a federal bailout, I don't know. Stopping nationwide service is stupid. It'll cost them money, could cause a panic, and inconveniences a LOT of people. Bad move, Greyhound.
