Oh as for the idiot comments - considering it's source I'm not overly concerned.

Hey Canadian.......are you a foremost expert on European transportation safety? How the hell do you know that they don't take security as seriously as we do. Stop speaking on behalf of Europe. I've been to several airports in Europe and they were no different than here. I had family in London when the bombings took place...I can assure they didn't come home telling us all about how nonchalant and tolerant they were after it happened. From my experience they wouldn't have called USAirways actions as "over-reacting" one bit. They would have probobly approached it in a similar manner. It is quite obvious that YOU don't consider 6 unarmed, praying Imams a threat. Many of us don't see that. We see six praying Arabs with one way tickets and no luggage. Quite similar to the group of men that jacked our airlines and killed a couple thousand people. Perhaps a foreign terrorist will fly an Air Canada 747 into downtown Toronto.....then we will see who is "overreacting."
