Merry Christmas, infidel dog...let me blow you to smithereens

Does anyone think it's a good idea to let folks set fire to bombs in aircraft as they approach Detroit? Or anywhere else?

After our government failed us on this one, ordinary passengers disabled the little creep.So how come we're paying vast sums of money to a federal government that can't keep violent Islamist nutballs off our aircraft?

Or if they're not able to do that, then at least stop using tax money to fund giant agencies that do very little, and stop making everyone who flies go through a useless song-and-dance to get on a plane.

Harumph. Okay, now I feel like I'm shouting 'Get off my lawn' at somebody. I don't want to be the neighborhood grump, but it gets harder and harder not to be every passing news story.

Agreed the mindlessly egalitarian screenings are just plain stupid.
But, as I mentioned in my last reply to Pat, this guy's *father* reported him to the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria six months ago. What is wrong with these people, who are being paid good money to protect us?

EDIT: My mistake, the report is variously "several weeks ago" and "three months ago."
