Maybe, but the Revolution is militantly anti-gun and out to hurt the kinds of people who carry guns.....it might very well be that standards and practices have changed to greater hurt those who carry guns into airports.

We dont know, we dont have journalists anymore generally, they abandoned the craft to shill for UTOPIA.

Well, the real nasty is the double standard for the elite and connected versus the rest of us

Man who had more than 200 firearms at home pleads guilty
A Rhode Island man who had more than 200 guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition at his home has pleaded guilty to lying to federal authorities about his drug use when he bought the weapons
https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/man-200-firearms-home-pleads-guilty-96515526

That guy lied on the background check form about his drug use and he's going to prison and losing all his guns and ammo in the process. Yet, Hunter (Bagman) Biden did the exact fucking thing and isn't even being investigated for it. Bagman should be charged, tried, likely convicted, and go to prison too.

No surprise, the overwhelming numbers are from gun States, with Texas and the Gunshine State topping the list.

Now if Constitutional rights are absolute, that the Second Amendment “shall not be infringed,” as we are told over and over by gun huggers, how can this happen, how can TSA take away their weapons? Don’t they have a Constitutional right to have those guns with them?

All of them from former congressman, Madison Cawthorne :)

they were at one time, so yes. it wasn't a problem then. I know, YOU have zero faith in other human beings that aren't elected to political office or are armed government agents, but that's your problem, not the rest of society. An armed society is a polite society.

You are such an idiot. Loaded guns on planes? What could go wrong, asswipe?

All the 9/11 terrorists needed were box-cutters. Just think how much easier it would be to hijack a flight with an AR15.

Gun nuts are such fucking fools.

Any idiot trying to hijack a plane now wouldn't last two seconds before being pummeled to death by rampaging passengers.

wrong. all of it. I carry everyday here in DFW, I have seen ONE other person carrying this year. As a civilian, YOU are not only responsible for your own safety, YOU are the first responder. Society is a dangerous place as evidenced by places like chicago, st louis, NYC, and other democrat run stronghold cities.

Are you that crazy? Wow. I do not feel safer that another nut is carrying weapons around.
First responder? You really are crazy.

Now you are claiming an absolute constitutional right to enter someone else's property with a gun? Really?

Since the beginning of flight, pilots were given a wide latitude of control over who flew, and what they could carry. Since the beginning of commercial flight, it was recommended that they take control over any guns on the plane. In 1958, the newly founded FAA turned that strong recommendation into a regulation, but it had been a regulation at most airports before that. In 1961, it became a law.

There has never been a time that you can take a gun onto a plane without the permission of the pilot, and pilots were never eager to give it to random people on large commercial planes.

Most prosecutors in far left Democratic Socialist cities believe that there is an absolute constitutional right to enter someone else's property with a gun.

When they rob a store, they don't even prosecute them, Walter.

Poor Walter.

The most ironic part of this? Those 6,542 gunners probably claimed that they were carrying to keep themselves and others safe. Every one of them would have been safer if none of them had tried to carry a gun onto an airplane in the first place.

How about Air Marshals, Walter?

They are armed.

I'll repeat myself because I feel that it's worth emphasizing.

I was introduced to commercial air travel in 1957.

It was far more pleasant then, even with propeller planes, than it is now.
That's simple fact.

Between cabins with at least a third more seats than comfortably fit
plus paranoia over security, commercial air travel is an abomination today.
I hate it so much that I can't even take a nice holiday anymore.

I agree with that wholeheartedly. I think plane travel is the worst, most inconvenient, and least efficient way to transport people.
