Just look at the Flight Deck Armed Officer issue. It took a couple of years after the 911 attacks to get even a few pilots certified to have weapons in the cockpit, regardless of the fact that many were previously certified with firearms in their military occupations.

Yeah, we trust a guy (or gal) to keep track of ten GO-zillion different switches and instruments in the cockpit and make split second decisions that affect the lives of hundreds of people but none of them can be trusted to keep track of the four or five controls on a handgun.

Yeah right. That was and is a prime example of governmental foot dragging. If the administrators don't like something it can be delayed forever. Remember administrators are appointed not elected. The admin guy in charge of the TSA at the time was LEON PANETTA. Remember CLINTON'S chief stooge and antigun crusader along with the other Clinton stooges?
