A mock-BOMB slips past TEMPA-FORIDA Airport-Security!!!

I am a little reluctent to fly now....I don't see how we got the twin towers attacked on 9/ll and still we aren't what we should be in airports. People shouldn't be able to get through airports with any kind of bombs...real or not...I think that they should "beef up" security at the airports. As far as media telling us about such test....yes and no to that question because yes we should know that the airport security isn't what it should be....there are people such as terrorists that shouldnt know that it is that easy to get through an airport with any kind of bombs be fake or not!

Yeah, they are able to sneak fake bombs past security and last year they strip searched an elderly lady I was flying with because her picture Id. was out of date. Thats right. We had already flown halfway across the US with that same Id. and no one noticed it and we were on our way back home from the conference that we had been to when some idiot checked it and said she needed another form of Id. Well it was the only one she had with her and it was the one she had used to get where we were. It was her drivers license but she didn't drive any more and hadn't noticed that it had expired or didn't know that it mattered. The picture was obviously her. It really was a good picture of her. The numbers on the license matched the numbers that had been written down on the first check in stub, but they still made her go through a strip search. I protested and they almost tossed me off the manafest, so I shut up. I knew my traveling companion would need me when they got done with her as she was a diabetic and I had her insulin etc. We both survived and actually still made the flight only just. But it is insane that the do this sort of thing and then of course miss the important stuff all together. But no I am not afraid to fly. The odds are still better in the air than they are on the road any day. There are still more people killed on our highways everyday than there ever are in planes. And it is still more dangerous to walk down the street where I live than it is to fly in a plane. So I would still fly. Shalom~Adoniah

Where's Tempa? I know, I know. Don't be a smartass. But seriously, complete security is a myth. If we constantly live in fear that keeps us from going about our business, then the terrorists have already won.
