Yeah, go on being thankful.... Maybe that will help the next time you fly. The Gore Commission (yes, the GORE Commission) recommended airplane tech measures that could provide 90% protection against shoulder mounted missile attacks against airlines after all the speculation about TWA #800. The airlines could not fund the expense, but the current selected occupants dump $8 BN+ in a 21st century Maginot Line while our commercial flights are subject to attack by missiles we built and gave to the crazies. And let's not even talk about the ship container threat to our "Homeland Defense"...... Yeah, just keep on being thankful, you fool. Oh but not too worry....you have your gun.
