Someone might not recognize it as such, which is why we so desperately need a sarcasm font.<br /><br />Near as I can tell the whole air travel security thing is a complete farce. It doesn't bother me too much, I'm too cheap to go anywhere. <br /><br />As for stray bullets, I doubt whether one or two, or even a dozen bullets from a handgun could bring down a modern airliner, given redundant controls etc. Now if all 300 people emptied the 15 round clip from their handgun into the air frame, well, they might succeed, but even then I think the odds would be about even.Chuck Pergielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14473338620167201696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261262990290532740.post-63103936523765279472011-11-06T12:14:17.795-08:002011-11-06T12:14:17.795-08:00Hey Charles,

Our crime-ridden state (Wisconsin) just legalized concealed carry of weapons, and now wisely has decided that they can be carried into the state capitol, probably to save money on lobbyists. Frankly, it they're going to allow some of the gun nuts around here to be packing, they should at least feel the same level of "security" that the guy on the street has. And if that makes us safer, why not airplanes?Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4261262990290532740.post-73941068234770300362011-11-05T22:29:55.349-07:002011-11-05T22:29:55.349-07:00Stray bullets would down the plane by depressurisi...Stray bullets would down the plane by depressurising the cabin, hitting control cables, busting avionics etc, all without hitting a single person :-(Ole Phat Stuhttp://www.savory.de/blog.htmnoreply@blogger.com
