Why are you dividing the money by their failures Cutter? Surely it should be divided by how many plots they have stopped?

That's just a catch all way to not have to say they haven't done a damn thing to justify their existence. I would bet the farm that if they ever manage to foil something, it will be all over the media like a viral video on social networking.

Dont believe the depths these sort of people will drop to to kill people. They used a mentally retarded man to plant a bomb in a resturant in Britain. It wasnt the most effective strategy but dont doubt they will use a small children, disabled people and other vulnerable people to pass weapons and bomb parts through security.
Actually, aren't flight crew allowed to bring drinks on board?

So, at least that narrows the field of potential drink-warriors to the flight attendants et al.

Among other things, extreme racial profiling (racism).

If you meet the criteria to be considered a member of a certain, specific ethnic group, you're turned away more or less even if completely innocent. That also applies even if you're not a member of said, specific enthic group. You just have to appear to be to the screening staff. So even user error is prone to causing problems.

and, if anyone is curious about what, certain specific ethnic group I'm talking about, take a look at who Israel is at war with.
And how many El Al planes have been flown into buildings in the last 40 years?

Bijlmer disaster, at least 43 dead (it is very likely illegals lived in the flat that was hit). Though that wasn't on purpose and a cargo jet, just due to the engines simply literally falling off the aircraft. Pins keeping the engines attached to the airplane failed due to metal fatigue.


Maybe they should have focused more on general maintenance and inspections of airworthiness than security...
