Security has been beefed up in the nation's airports since September 11 when hijackers managed to get box cutters past screening checkpoints.

Lawmakers are debating legislation that would give the federal government greater control over airport security. </font>
I love how the media keeps suggesting that the 9/11 hijackers somehow "smuggled" or "snuck" these weapons past the checkpoint, when in fact, it was legal to do so under federal law.
