Well, for whatever it is worth, here is my take on it...

They managed to stop a panic among the sheeple who just listen to the headlines, andd don't think for themselves... check that box off...

Today, they let out a little bit of doubt, so those of us who are a tad suspicious feel somewhat mollified... check that box off...

Tomorrow, a bit more doubt is expressed, to keep the extra suspicious calm in the streets... another box checked...

After Thanksgiving, when the holiday flights have all been taken, and I pray real hard here, none have been taken down, they will let whatever they think is the truth out...

You know what I think we should do? Radical, but that is because I am upset and mad at the way this has been handled...

I think we should boycott the airlines, planes, certain airports, etc... until they do something better than they are doing now to tell us the truth, and put better safety measures in, and I don't want to hear any nonsense about "how long the lines are going to be"...

I'm fed up, and don't want to hear any more crap from that woman heading up the NTSB who acts like a skinny version of Hillary!

Unfortunately, the governments karma has run over the peoples dogma!

I agree with your idea of a show of disgust, but crippling the airline business would likely make things even worse. It seems that power can lift you above the consequences that ordinary citizens must face!

Although as you mention, if we could shun one major airport for a week or so that would show TPTB (the powers that be) that we are serious.

I love the country America, but I almost always hate the government!

maybe the liability lawyers have done their cost analysis, and similar to
giant auto makers, have balanced the actuarials.
put the national guard on the ground, in the hangars, in the cargo docks.
they don't need to watch the xray techs or coddle the public that something
appears being done. time to do something useful.
focus groups won't save lives here. sack all xlinton holdovers, as well.
