  2. it can't happen again on Passenger Risk Database to be Implemented in U.S. · · Score: -1

    even without the new security measures, what passengers/crew would allow themselves to be taken hostage by a set of box cutters knowing full well what happened to the last plane that allowed it to happen?

  3. thank you on Passenger Risk Database to be Implemented in U.S. · · Score: -1

    I've always thought this was a bit obvious but not many people seem to mention it. I find it very difficult to believe that the passengers aboard an airplane would allow themselves to be hijacked with a box cutter again. of course, if 50 "terrorists" all decide to book passage on the same flight it could be a problem, but one would think our government has it together enough where they would notice something like this.
