No crying about airport scans

We're not going to start crying about the body scanners that the airports are going to install, are we? Have we forgotten 9/11 and the almost 3,000 people that were murdered; are we just going to submit to being slaughtered?

If the underwear bomb would have really gone off, the 300 passengers would be splattered all over the countryside. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, huh?

Let us remember that there are people out there that are trying to kill us. They don't care if they know us or not, if we are men, women or children. That bomb goes off and it does not pick and choose, it kills all, especially in a plane.

If you don't like the body scanner idea, then use the body search, if you don't like that, either, then you best drive yourself by car. We are still reeling from the effects of 9/11, which brought this country to its knees, and not in prayer. Nothing has been right since that attack on us, and I am afraid that security will have to be endured if we want freedom and the right to go on living.

It's too late if that bomb goes off, 20,000 feet in the air. It's too late to take the should haves, could haves and would haves back. It's over - THE END.
