Basically, someone has a patent on a contraption that you can put on passengers on an airplane. If there's an emotional abnormality, the flight crew will be notified. Even better, it comes equipped with a miniature syringe to "inject or deliver a micro dose of sedatives, narcotics or strong tranquilizers to the person under an anomalous emotional condition." Awesome. I want to be a hijacker. You get free drugs to make long flights better. This post has been edited by pebkac: Nov 14 2006, 12:54 PM -------------------- Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

there won't be any more successful hijackings in our country. ever. it doesn't matter if they somehow get machine guns on board, the passengers will be gouging out their eyes with plastic spoons. al-qaeda played that card, it won't get played again.

I am against this, Thought/ feeling crime
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Somebody just needs to invent transparent body armor. That way it can cover cleavage for safety, but still be revealing!
I'll get right on that, after I'm finished inventing power armor. -------------------- |

Ground all planes. Preventing Hijackings is like preventing crime, it is impossible

Ground all planes. Preventing Hijackings is like preventing crime, it is impossible I swear, the more and more stupid Hunter S. Thompson quotes you add the less and less i like you. Oh, and preventing hi-jackings is MUCH easier than a lot of other crimes. Its already a controlled environment, not as many variables for a would be hi-jacker to use. |
