Those families who are suiing deserve every penny, gee, you'd think setting off metal detectors would raise suspicion not to mention:

"Even after setting off these alarms, the airlines and security screeners failed to examine the hijackers' baggage, as required by federal regulations and industry mandated standards, or discover the weapons they would use in their attack," lawyer Ron Motley said."

Who do they have working there, idiots? No offense but come on, after reading this article and the pictures, can you really deny the fact that this could have been prevented?

Flame away all you want... Heh...

But investigators on the commission have said the hijackers at Dulles were believed to be carrying utility knives either personally or in their luggage, which at the time could legally be carried aboard planes.

Enough said.

Still, the fact that they were legal to have with you, even if you got searched and they found it, the attacks still would have happened.

Roger that Evan.

I was just ripping the current system. Now we are aware, have a new system and new rules in place and look at the idiocy that happens?

The best was when Mohammed Atta got his Residence approved by the INS six months after he died crashing the plane into the WTC. That right there shows you the level of intelligence in the US buerocracy (<--- never can spell that word.)
