The other day I saw a guy reading a book that was full of terrorist acts, war, even decimation of the entire planet's population save one family. He was wearing all black in what seemed to be a cult-like fashion. In fact, it turned out, he didn't even buy his own ticket, his "church" did. I was very scared and wanted him locked up for daring to take that book on my airplane.

It was, of course, a priest reading the bible...

Saw a similar thing last week. A guy whose reading material was full of acts of terrorism, war, killing, bombings, rape, murder and worse. But before boarding he finished reading it and put his newspaper in the trash.
