Air Marshals
Recently CNN ran an article called Air marshals missing from almost all flights.
In it they have stated that:
Of the 28,000 commercial airline flights that take to the skies on an average day in the United States, fewer than 1 percent are protected by on-board, armed federal air marshals, a nationwide CNN investigation has found.
SO WHAT?!?
Honestly, do we really think that our airport security has gotten that much better after 9/11. Its all show. It really is. They may catch some of the goofy stuff, but I’m willing to bet that if you wanted to you could get a weapon of some sort on board and attempt to take a plane.
