What's your point?
Only rebublirats are nuts or demorats are nuts ?
No reason to believe the current security regulations are responsible. As I recall their have been one.or two children who have snuck on airplanes with out being detected. One person hid in a wheel well. The list goes on.700UW said:31 shootings since columbine, yet not one shoe bomber since that incident.

The VA Tech shooter was found mentally ill by the courts, yet he was allowed to purchase what he did, because mental health checks are not legal.

There are roughly 30k gun deaths a year. I don't think that is going to do jack to stem that tied.SparrowHawk said:
Perhaps a good pace to start would be the indiscriminate prescription of psychotropic drugs by Big Pharma.
Also a revision of civil commitment rules may help keep guns out of the hands of those who are a danger to themselves and others.
