... because TheMercenary hates it when we waste time worrying about our Constitutional rights. The fascist TheMercenary knows we are only wasting effort. He knows his righteous wacko extremists partners will eventually prevail. Felony imprisonment for the schoolyard administrator. That is also how the Nazis did it.
TheMercenary loves democracy for same reasons that Hitler did. Imprision her. She needs to be replaced by a Limbaugh lover instead. Good place to start reeducating kids into the wisdoms of Pres Cheney. Next come school uniforms. Brown is a good team color. |

A lot of public school districts, around the country, are instituting dress codes that include uniforms.

Since when was it a Constitutional Right to carry a 5 1/2 inch bread knife with a rounded tip and a serrated edge on to a plane? Hmmm... other then taking the knife from her and giving her a fine, that should have been the end of it. If you get the point.

I was on a business trip a few years ago and I went through security. In my laptop case was a set of precision screwdrivers that I had forgot about. I made it through the security scan with no problems. Then I had to change flights and go to a gate in a different terminal. Security found the screwdriver set and confiscated it.
I think most people realize that they can't take on swords, spearguns, and bowie knives, but the fact is that the rules seem to be constantly changing. Most of the items on the list are not considered weapons anywhere outside of an airport. They are asking people to basically perform a police style search on their pocketbooks, backpacks, etc, for items tucked away in pockets, folded into creases, or otherwise lost. The guy with the set of lawn darts should have known better, but I don't think a jury would convict a woman for the forgotten toenail clippers with built in nail file at the bottom of her pocketbook. Basically, we are responding to whatever terrorists can think up, and really the sky's the limit. Shoe bombs and liquid explosives are just some possibilities. Anyone who has watched McGuyver or some spy movies knows about toothpaste that can burn through walls, exploding pens, dental floss garrotes, etc. If you created a rule for every possibility, we would end up flying naked.
