How about that "stun" thing that many police use ? Also, they should have a computer database of prior visa history so when a person claims they lost their passport they don't "wash their past" visa history. For example, if you lose your passport they print a new one but all the old past stamped visa info is gone. The new passport starts from scratch again. I think a trail of visa data would be quite useful in determining who we should let in our country and who we should "ship back at the border". Also, facial computer scans (or is that technology determined by the person's pupil ?) should be used to ID people as stolen IDS is quite common (apparently). One other thing, how about security clearance for anyone who wants to board a plane in this country ? You have to get a drivers license to drive why not a license to fly as a passenger as well. Also, one other thing, how about flight-passenger "license denied" for those with a criminal arrest history. Thanks

Sorry for not getting back to you for such a long time. I am aware of the problem of inflicting damage to the aircraft and others. Weapons are an emergency measure as well as a deterrent. They could possibly have stopped this mess in NY and DC. The aircraft would have survived. Remember, these idiots took command with box cutters. An anonymous woman, say 22 years old sitting in seat 15B who had command of a 45 APC could have stopped this mess. The plane might have went down, granted, but I doubt it. My point is basically, they want to perish in an inferno. If they get caught they leave a lot of tracks. They don't want a bullet.
