terrorists taking down planes?

[Meve]

this evening I was watching the 60minutes and they had a segment about these shoulder-fired missiles that ccould fall in the hands of terrorists.

this shit scared me. I didn't even think about this and we even supplied them to afghanistan. ugh!

do u think that schumer's plan to put this technology on planes for $10 billion, to prevent attacks on planes, is necessary?

Because in all honesty it's very old news. Hell, they thought TWA 800 might have been shot down by one of these when it first happened...

this is old news. 60 minutes must think this is a slow news week to be dragging this one up. The government has been exploring the weakness of US airports to MANPAD's for almost two years now.
