Commercial airlines are under Federal Aviation Administration orders to install new, heavier cockpit doors by April 9, 2003. They must lock from inside the cockpit and be strong enough that terrorists can't shoot off a lock or blow up the door.

Mean while, the F-16's are ready to blow you travelers out of the sky. The people who think this stuff up are fools with inflated egoes, believing they know better than anyone else.

I guess their take is: why give the pilot a lil-ole gun when we already got a pilot up there with a heckuva gun. OUR pilot will blast that nasty ole hijacker to kingdom come, plane and all.

The important thing is, it's a Federal pilot that's carrying the gun!

To a government which condones abortion, the life of the common man is of little worth. What has value to them is protecting the state and the pagans and rebels who operate the state.
