FAKE BOMB MAKES IT TO AMSTERDAM
Neal Boortz comments on this airline security debacle: Since September 11, 2001, billions of your tax dollars (most of it borrowed money) has been poured into homeland security, designed to make us all safer. Responsibility for airport security has been handed over to federal employees at the Transportation Security Agency, or TSA. So how's the TSA been doing?
Not good. A story out of New Jersey earlier this week continues to prove the point that we are no safer at airports today than we were before 9/11. Baggage screeners at Newark Liberty International Airport lost a fake bomb that was planted in luggage for a training exercise. It was later recovered by security officials in Amsterdam, after making its way onto a flight there.
The "bomb" even had wires, a detonator and a clock. Hard to miss, but the TSA did. Their spokeswoman says it was too soon to say if anyone would be disciplined for the failure. Is it too much to ask to get some real airport security in this country?
These people will grope breasts ... but can't keep their eyes on a bomb with wires and detonators. Feel safe, do you?
