Not much faith in TSA these days
I bet Tiger Woods is glad the attempted Northwest Airlines flight 253 to Detroit made the headlines- maybe it will take the heat off him for a while. I am a little pissed, however, at the people who let Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab get on the damn plane in the first place. All the signs were there that this extremist lunatic should not be outside a cemetery let alone an airplane. Let's list them: 1. He was on a terrorist watch list. 2. His own father warned U.S. officials. 3. He probably looks similar to this asshole who tried to blow up an airplane with a shoe bomb back in 2001. Richard Reid- Now convicted of 9 charges and Al Qaeda trained. Translation: He will sit in prison for the rest of his life as a drain on our tax system, much like unwed teenage mothers except Reid can't get knocked up when the boys come-a-callin'. I would like to address the previous points above and why we dodged a bullet with this latest attempt ...
