39. It's not that I think they're unrestrained
But if there's no reason for them to be there, it doesn't matter how restrained they are, right? Even restrained officers pose more of a risk than no officers, especially when you admit there's no real reason to have them there. It seems like you're kind of fighting a different battle (over air marshals on planes) rather than the issue here. And I have to wonder why we're apparantly willing to spend millions over a non-existant problem. According to the 9/11 commission, we haven't even addressed the basic problems, like emergency communications, since that day. Yet we're willing to invest millions of dollars to stop the epidemic problem of bus hijacking. :eyes:
