"TSA needs to take a moment to reflect on why they were created in the first place -- after the world had seen how ordinary household items could create such devastation," said Corey Caldwell, spokeswoman for the Association of Flight Attendants, which has more than 46,000 members. "When weapons are allowed back on board an aircraft, the pilots will be able to land the plane safety but the aisles will be running with blood."
Give me a break! It's inflammatory rhetoric like this that shows everything that is wrong with the culture of public debate in today's society. Like there's going to be a bloodbath in the cabin because some guy's got a pair of scissors and a Swiss Army knife - I'll take him down myself before that happens!
