Sad to say, but we have all kinds of people in this wonderful country of ours. Stupid people in position to do lots of harm because of their ignorance and stupidity. And also lots of good people, who do not participate in anything and only watch from the sidelines.

They don't care if the guy risked his life for all of us, or that it made him receive our highest decoration for valor. Schools and liberals have demeaned military service and service in general; ignorance about history is generalized, and lack of concern or respect for old age,is non existent anymore.

While the situation we all know about demands increased security, it should also be applied with common sense; yes, nail files could be used for anything, so could the plastic knives that they give you with your onboard meal!!! So could a broken plastic fork or spoon. Two days ago, security personnel refused to let me carry onboard the bungee cords that I use to secure my laptop computer bag to a rolling, folding cart. I guess belts are next.

And all, because a bunch of airline executives, pursuing profit over anything else, allowed airport security to become a joke, paying the lowest possible rates to the lowest qualified people, and now, we all have to go through this, so they can keep making money.

Anyway, this is my coming back to the forum rant.

So be it.

Saludos to everyone!!!
