I ope so, but you notice that we've heard nothing more since the announcements a week or so ago about the bogus pilots hitching rides in the cockpit. Are the airlines afraid of liability? Is the government keeping a cap on this news? I hope it isn't just brushed under the rug.
There was a little squib in my local paper this morning about the FBI, CIA, and law enforcement asking for records of students on visas at various Wisconsin colleges. Most of the colleges were not co-operating. St. Norberts, however, turned over information on a Saudi student because he was taking flying lessons. Then they dropped the investigation because someone said the student was affiliated with the Saudi Air Force.
Hmmmmmmmmm.
The issue was people arriving at a gunfight that St. James Beck the Immolated, Martyr to the Sacred Cause of Libertarianism, terrorists had INITIATED, and the fact that I blamed St. James Beck terrorists for the ensuing mess, whereas you somehow expected people to have perfect situational awareness on arrival into the middle of a firefight from ELSEWHERE aka The Cabin.
Poohbah, the only difference is that government agents play different roles in each situation, and therefore you must rationalize each differently. By the way, I know libertarians are the bogeyman you look for behind every disagreement, but I should inform you that I'm not one.
