Does anybody else think it’s stupid that airline pilots are forced to go through security checks to make sure they’re not carrying weapons onto the plane?
And they go through security like everybody else. “It is pretty demeaning to stand there with four stripes on your uniform and take off your shoes,” Duisik says, though he adds he understands the reasons.
If a pilot wanted to crash the plane, he doesn’t need a weapon. He can just push forward on the yoke and pull the throttle back to zero thrust and the plane will crash.
This is as dumb as searching grandmothers, toddlers, and Al Gore.
Take that back, Dom! No grandmothers and toddlers want to be lumped into the same category as Al Gore!
You wouldn’t search Al Gore?? I’d search him first.
You can say that again, Dom!
Al Gore???? The inventor of the internet, the plot source of Love Story? Surely you cannot mean the man who didn’t carry HIS OWN COUNTY in ‘00? “
“Paging Drs. H. Clinton and J. Reno: please report to Concourse 3, Gate 2 for a cavity search of a failed Presidential Candidate…”
It’s reassuring for the terrorists to know with certainty that the crew is unarmed.
Who knows what Gore’s carrying in that locked box?
