Charles & List
I can't decide whether your political diatribe is tongue-in-cheek or
just fox-news simplistic so I'll get to the real issue. Do we need to raise
the education level for someone to screen baggage?
I'm surmising you envision the role of baggage screener to be more
intrusive than simply a "baggage screener"? You're suggesting the "baggage
screener" will ask questions, interview and evaluate responses and
presumeably make some decision based on his (baggage screener's) evaluation.
I don't think the role of federalized baggage screener was intended to
interview etc and was created to screen baggage for weapons etc and thus the
ideal employee would be one that could focus on imagery for hours regardless
of his education.
Why not hire police officers to screen baggage? The law enforcement
community turned this empire-building opportunity down flat. Why? They know,
as I know, it wouldn't be long before one of their officers let something
slip through.
Does anyone think the flying public is ready, economically and
politically, to submit to the El El check-in process? The airlines have
reduced flights substantially since 9-11 and will do so again if the El Al
process is instituted as passengers will avoid flying except for long
distances. El Al with their limited flight schedule can delay, but UA etc
cannot IMHO.
BTW "...philosophy of discussion that occurs in an educational
environment" Are you talking about high school?

I think not.
The reason I stress education is that with the
volume of traffic being submitted for perusal,
it requires someone with patience and discipline,
and an experience of the world, that comes with
the philosophy of discussion that occurs in an
educational environment.
Failure to complete high school in this day and
age, suggests someone who cannot deal with the
contensioness of life...and makes poor decisions.
Our enemy is dedicated, and cannot be rehabilited.
They believe they put a feather in their cap by
killing innocent civilians, prior to their going
to sit by their diety...
Although stupid, given our shoe bomber, who could
just as easily gone to the restroom to light his
shoes...Or the sweating cock-a-roch who was caught
nervously crossing the Canadian border @Jan2000.
We need screeners with perception, and an experience
of life, which gives them insight to judge.
Not burgerflippers...
The problem with Americans, is that our experience
and viewpoints in regards to the experience of life,
does not contain individuals that will willingly
kill themselves and innocent civilians, Cuban,
Mexican, Japanese, Black, or White Americans...
Because they believe we are infidels and the US
government...when most, are not a party to the
US decision making process, such as bailing out
airlines, and providing remedy for Ohio flood
victims...personally, I feel sorry for them, but,
they live on a flood plain. What did they expect?
I say, don't use my tax dollars to bail them out.
Our ignorant, blindered, unrehabilatable enemy,
does not make this distinction, hence, we need
to drop "pOlItIcAlCoRrEcTnEsS", and post our best
for our defense...after all, we send the Marines
to battle, not the pudgy, overweight mass of pissed
off Americans I see regularly passing through
airports...
Our security, in the light of an enemy who would
pack a suitcase bomb, board the plane, order
cracked crab, the lobster tail, and champagne, and
willingly blow up with the plane whilst on board,
requires our best, just like the USMarines.
Lose the ACLU, political correctness for another
day...our very existence and economy depends on
the actions we take.
Remember, these m*&^tha&*kers, cannot be
rehabilitated...They WILL try again, especially
since they live amongst us, and we are unwilling
to take the necessary action(s)...due to the
OlIvEbRaNcH huggers, ACLU, and other downtrodden
witnesses in society.
The necessary action is:
Profiling, and allowing those who have never
committed suicidal act(s) to pass.
It may sound Buchanan-esque to say this, but
only one immigrant to America, can solicit 19
assholes to fly planes into buildings.
McVeigh, is the 10 year abberation, so save that
argument.
It's time to get real, nationalize production
facilties of capability, and produce the scanners
and sniffers we need.
These cock-a-roaches WILL try again.
We need our best line of defense.
Stop the rhetoric, and let's get busy...
like yesterday.
Anything less is foolish compassion and a failure
to recognize the threat that lives amongst us.
Anyone who can live in America, for FIVEYEARS,
even with their extremist fourth world views,
dine, party and converse with our citizenry, yet
still slit throats and fly my UAL N612UA into a
building, needs to be thwarted and exterminated.
Remember, the enemy cannot be rehabilitated.
Profiling may seems bad to some, because they
feel all "MiddleEasterners" aren't bad.
However, might I suggest that if you had a big
house, and 10 daughters, and I suggested that
I and 5 of my friends stay with you, but 2 of
them are rapists, but I don't know which one(s),
I think you would question your compassionate,
olive branch toting views, no???
That's what we have, with the enemy amongst us.
