American airports were criticized by European officials today because of over security. The chairman of British Airways, Martin Broughton, remarked that the U.S procedures of taking off your shoes and taking laptops out of their bags. Executives also complained about the long screening times and drawn out process of getting in and out of the airport.
This seems like a reasonable argument, but we had a bomber try and fail on Christmas day just last year. I know that waiting in the airport can be ridiculously long sometimes, but thats mostly because of precautions taken after the bombing of 9/11. That was one of the worst events ever to happen in American history. If we were to go back on all of the precautions implemented after the attack we might leave ourselves prone to another. Now we are looking to implant full body scanners at airports to really crackdown. I believe its our duty to comply with airport regulations even if they are a hassle, for our safety and general welfare.
