Can't get up an hour before landing is just dumb. I'm sure that will go away soon as you have people with kids who can't wait, pregnent women, or a varity of other people. Either that or you'll have a lot of piss in the seat. Just stupid how we put these fake measures into place. Obviously all the security we have no didn't stop someone.... they really think this will help? How? Get up during the flight, problem solved. Illogical and borderline retarded logic.

^ TSA is always reactionary in it's rules...never proactive.

true, which is a shame. It shows the level of actual involvement we have. Wait and respond versus thinking of real ways to be proactive. It's not something easy to stop (don't get me wrong, I like good security), but I wish they would really think about how to proactively put good measures into place instead of letting the people who try these stunts to dictact the rules.

More to the point, why did they (Delta) let him on the plane in the first place
- Yeah I thought we had security measures, no-fly lists, etc. Are you saying they don't work?Dr_Sparkleshine

I love the comment that a passenger helped "subdue" him... It makes it sound very calming. Not like "passengers tried to murder him after he tried to blow up the plane"

Fear Fear Fear,
you just can't get enough™

a retarded try to blow up his shoes, the entire world now has to get on a plane with less than 100ml of liquid (but still can buy it in the duty free), take of your shoe, get harrassed by airport security, and all that for what?nothing, keep leaving in fear US, if the guy says he's from ALQuaeda, he surely is..... what a sad state of mind we're living in
- and ffs, What is the prestige? we won't be able to travel while sick, more full body scanners our way comes...GeorgesII

there are a pile of mistakes in the BBC article and they use 3 different names for the terrorist! what the hell, they are about as useless as he is.
also if passengers aren't allowed to get up in the last hour of a flight, when someone else tries what he tried, no-one will be allowed to stop him... oh well, we are at the mercy of the genius minds behind the rules.
- more than one name was released; the article makes reference to this.********
- completely agree about the sit-down rule.. completely stupid and reactionary..********

shoebomber tries to blow up his shoes, we all have to take off our shoes,
underwear bomber tries to blow up a plane hiding explosives in his undies...* buys tiger stripped g-string to travel with
- So when you try to blow up a plane we'll have to what? Remove our brain?Dr_Sparkleshine
- so you agree that losing more and more rights is OK, if you gain only an illusory sense of security, keep on living in fear of deathGeorgesII
- of death..GeorgesII

cops are smart...
some passengers demanded to see their lawyers, others said they wanted food and water. This last demand was answered affirmatively; the officers promised they were securing snacks and water for everyone. The officer continued:
"But every single one of you will need to be interviewed today. Before you go home. How many people here don't speak English? Raise your hand."
This last message prompted a bit of laughter.

we can go on the fucking moon but we can't manage to invent something that would detect all the bad stuff someone could bring onto a plane.
