Re: Passenger attempts to blow up Northwest Airlines flight.

Heheh. You think that prisoner medical care is any good? It's laughable, pretty much third world stuff...

I especially enjoy the third world charters we do with 2 pax/prisoners, 2 guards and a nurse between the prison and a medical facility where the prisoners are being treated for cancer.

1) They never ask for a discount.
2) They never mess up the cabin
3) If anything, they're early...not late.

Yep, it's really third world.

Re: Passenger attempts to blow up Northwest Airlines flight.

Everyone you mentioned was muslim. Its not a racial or national issue as your argument states. By mentioning a group of muslims you defeated your own argument against religious profiling. Political correctness will not work when dead Americans are falling from the skies in our airplanes. Until then we can have these trite arguments. We hope it never happens, but I don't think that our hopes matter when it comes to terrorists.

And how exactly do you tell who's Muslim? It's not as if they walk around wearing "I <3 Mecca" t-shirts or something like that. It's generally hard to tell what religion someone is unless you spend time around them, they advertise it, or you have some kind of super religion-seeing powers that we're not aware of.

Yes, but they don't get any pretzels or anything.

Or an in-flight movie.

We don't have pretzels on our plane. So they get stuck with cookies, crackers, chips, granola bars, peanuts, assorted coke products, etc.

Of course, they're usually so drugged up when they get on that they tell us they're someone like Frank Sinatra or something...yeah, had one tell me he was Frank. That was a fun flight.

I gotta ask this question because I know what it's like up here in Canada...

How much screening is done to cargo being loaded on passenger flights?

You don't want to know...
