How many bomb specialists pick up the bomb and inspect it by banging on the counter? Jeffery Smith New Orleans, LA -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jls=runbox.com@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jls=runbox.com@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Frank Filippone Sent: Saturday, April 03, 2004 11:12 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: RE: [Leica] What would you do if this happened to you? For all those ranting and raving about the way the airlines inspect you and your carry ones...... What would you feel like if they did not check anything, and your wife/daughter/girlfriend/son was on a flight that got bombed? Those ( expletive deleted) inspections prevent some level of moron from creating chaos. Deal with the delays and inconvenience.. the alternatives are not good. BTW, I do believe that our security measures are still not up to snuff, and in fact focus on the wrong details. I thinks the US should spend more time understanding and invoking the procedures used by the Israelis. They seem to have a good handle on the real issues of threat deterrent. Ted... it is a shame that your cameras may have been damaged. After the whole mess clears, tell us what the TSA has to say, and if they actually offer to pay for the damages.
