Something different, another security screw up at Jet Blue at JFK

It's getting so that we need a topic just to keep track of all these.

At Jet Blue at JFK this afternoon the terminal was evacuated, people removed from planes, the terminal searched, and all passengers rescreened because an FAA official observed the security screeners were not following the rules. They failed to use the hand wands on random passengers.

You would think that at some point the airlines will say enough is enough and get this straight. No weapons were involved here, but every day another screw up erodes the confidence of the people afraid of flying, not to mention the incredible inconvinience of being taken off an airplane, and to have to go back through security again.
