No, he's right. The Constitution specifically says that it is the supreme law of the land,

DIA has another TSA fiasco going on today. Just caught part of it in on the morning news and can't comment with a lot of authority, but it seems that they (TSA) laid off a lot of security checkers there and the security lines are an hour (at least) long. People ariving for 10 AM flights at 8 AM are missing them. Talk is of hiring some part timers to fill in the gap (makes me feel real secure to hear this).

Personally, (and I admit my views are entirely unique to me, not one else will feel this way) I'd rather fly with an armed pilot than with a bunch of passengers checked out by part timer security people.

I think "*bang_list" needs to be shown as recipient for this to work.

The last airline safety conference I had to attend, I went to via Amtrack, though I could have ridden free on my own airline employer's planes or jumpseated with another carrier.

They were real happy about reimbursing me for the ticket, lemme tellya. But like I told my station manager, hey, if neither the government nor the airline trusts the pilots, why should I?
