Thanks for the reply, Bubblehead. I can see where you are coming from. OK but unless you get close enough how could you tell that it was a fake? First reaction maybe would be to stop her from blowing herself up and taking countless others with her.
She took her chances with her life with that stupid stunt. What if it were real and security hesitated? If she didn't cooperate they would have shot her. Assuming that they had not been close enough to see that she wasn't a threat
Some of the smartest people I have ever known are submariners. I completely understand the training and consequences that you and my husband were trained in subs. BTW, I think you (according to guarding nukes) and my Husaband could have had the same job.
It is really simple. The flashing LEDs provide no probable cause to believe there is a bomb because you don't put flashing LEDs on a bomb because they have nothing to do with how bomb works. You need some other indicator that there is a bomb. Trying to evade a security inspection, refusal to cooperate with a security check, etc. So far as I can tell, she was guilty of none of the above.
Why do you believe it was a stunt? And why do you believe it was stupid? Because security folks who should know their business didn't and she should have known that?
