Because obviously painting a big, red, metaphorical bullseye on the back of every airline passenger will make them safer. That’s quite the Orwellian doublethink.
I just love that every time the passengers are the only ones to stop terrorists on commercial jetliners, security is tightened to immobilize and harass the passengers even more.
I just had to post to say how much I love your site, keep up the good work.
Talking about spreading infections, one thing that bugs me in the plane is the people who cough and sneeze without restraint. Most times they do that without consideration for the people sitting next to them and pass on their germs to us. I’ve wished for some form of protection from the microbes they are spewing out. I could wear a face mask but it is so uncomfortable and moreover it scares away everyone. So I came up with a product idea and patented it. I want to know how many others like me will find this product useful and so created a survey. Just fill it up and give me your valuable feedback. Thanks!

What? Increased security measures, reminds me of a movie from the 70s…
“But Delta’s already on probation.”
“They are? Well, as of this moment, they’re on DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION!”
