Some of these terrorists were everyday people. People who take your child's x-ray at the hospital, or work a set in with you on the Bench at the local Gym.

No, they were all known terrorists. The FBI had identified all of them within days. They were not every day people. I seriously doubt they would have slipped through a CCW check. Even if they did, then everyone else could have been armed too. They would have never dreamed this up if others would have been known to be armed.

Are we hiring "known terrorists" into our hospitals? Are we allowing "known terrorists" to X-ray us and our children? If so, then we have some SERIOUS problems. People should be asking why our government is allowing these people to work in positions where we are most vulnerable, LIKE HOSPITALS. What about the "known terrorists" that acquire HazMat truck driver licenses? Does this seem wise to you? I can't remember which of the 100's of interviews I watched where some goverment official said that the big surprise (and scary fact) in all this was that some of the terrorists were UNKNOWN, and therefor could not be tracked. This suggests to me that they were known as "everyday people", not "known terrorists".
