Both Transportation Secretary Norman Y. Mineta and Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge previously indicated their opposition to allowing anyone to be armed.
Even more incredible is that Norm Mineta has ruled out profiling at airports EVEN IF A PERSON LOOKS SUSPICIOUS! Believe it or not. Can we assume he is following Bush's orders? This is another example that shows, contrary to WH spin, that the safety and security of the American people are NOT the highest priority of this administration.
Let's see, the Bush administration refuses to protect our borders, refuses to deport Illegal Aliens and Middle East Immigrants from Terrorist Nations, refuses to enforce our immigration laws, yet is FOR Amnesties that reward illegal aliens for breaking our laws. I'd say that this latest ruling is about par for the course with this administration.
