This supreme eff-up easily cost Continental millions of dollars. I hope they sue the TSA.

What I want to know is how someone just walked through and wasn't spotted and tackled on the spot. Well, actually, I know. Have you ever walked out of the secure area after a flight and noticed the one security guard half asleep, only "barely" present? That one person holds the key to all airport security and they are barely awake. For all the efforts they make to secure people who go through screening, this one tired guard could ruin the whole system. There is no reason those exits should be unguarded, and no reason why that guy shouldn't have been stopped on the spot. Someone should get fired for this.

^ lol

A total lack of training and understanding the situation. these MORONS shut the whole airport down to prove they can do their job. If I was a bomber or attacker or what ever these Morons want to call it I would've blown myself up in the middle of the crowd you IDIOTS.

Here one separate all right wing nuts, republicans, teabaggers, christians these IDIOTS are afraid of their own shadow, screen them until they show physical signs of a orgasm, these IDIOTS love the mindless attention they generate, now let the True AMERICAN go on about his business.

For you IDIOTS MORNS and PUBLICTY CLOWNS here is what you should do.

A) Lock down the cause way were the suspect is DUH!

B) authorize the vendors to restrict traffic and hold up traffic, those near the rest rooms clear and close down the rest rooms, Hey stupid notice this is using all available resources recognizing the personnel problem. DUH!

C)Lock down and secure ALL passenger waiting areas HEY STUPID you are endangering lives by moving people en masse but then again this last plan was a RIGHT WING plan you can always tell no THOUGHT ROCESS INVOLVED ONLY PUBLICITY.

D)Now with cause ways shut down your security can start from front and rear simultaneously and start clearing people.

E) Using the thought process (this eliminates the right wing thinking is out publicity is in) you now have complete control and Isolation.

F) Using time line and time and distance you can further eliminate and secure the area in the general direction the perpetrator went.

For the reader the reason the perp WAS NOT caught is this was done to push the FULL BODY X RAY Machine for the states this is going to happen at least three or four more times, this is the Corporate right Wing agenda advancing itself. Remember it is the Holidays remember for 6 years the Holidays were the prime target of the Fear Mongering Right and the Corporate Fear Machine.

Remember it is NOT about airport security it is about Socialist Corporate PROFITS.

"this was done to push the FULL BODY X RAY Machine"

Really? So that plan was to push for upgraded screening equipment by showing that someone can avoid screening completely (whatever technology might in use) by simply walking around it?

You need to make a New Year's resolution to make sense.

Reading David Carr's tweets just confirms that Twitter is the dumbest thing on earth.

Ah, yup.

Oh geez-- I went to college with that kid performing. Not entirely uncommon for a Belmont alumni to take advantage of a crowd like that. Genius, really.
