    BT reports this quite scary record

    TSA seizes record 81 guns in a week at US airport checkpoints

    No doubt, an Executive Order will soon be passed to legalise guns on aircraft providing you bring your baptismal certificate with you when travelling…….

    My son has just completed 7 legs with a major US airline, all in Economy and all international. He tells me the state of the most of the aircraft was diabolical and the service – what service?

    Maybe a gun is justified…..

    I always take these statistics with a pinch of salt. Has there actually been an increase in the number of passengers trying to take a gun on board with them? Or rather have security measures been improved to facilitate more weapons being found than before?

    Does it matter, tomwjsimpson? Either way, it is really scary to me that so many Americans think it is OK to walk aboard a passenger plane with a loaded gun on their person. It is quite possible that a fair few are getting past security….

    Another good reason to avoid the USA!
