"Go get a union, get additional hours of training, become standardized. And in the meanwhile, please don't treat the public as the problem instead of the terrorists. Kindly remember too that the public you berate is the self-same "public" that went hurtling into those Twin Towers. Thank you so much."

Good post.

But the fact is, your not the same public that went hurtling into the Twin Towers. You are now a informed public that knows what could possibly happen now.

Those people on 9/11 had no clue that was their last trip in life. It might not have every entered their minds.

You as the flying public now know what lengths a terrorists is willing to go through. Today's public is now a line of defense against terrorists, like many FT's have stated on this board.
