As much as I disagree with the ACLU in its mission and their clients, they are not the problem here – it is TSA, Homeland Security, American Eagle and the FBI. If Jerry is right about 50% of what happened and the rhetoric used then it is a serious indictment as to the character, psyche and maturity of our national security apparatus and its personnel. I would want to have someone in command deal with that by tightening recruiting, vetting and training those people. The reason our military handles these things better is their discipline and training. It sounds like we have a bunch of Rambo wannabes with the IQ’s and discipline of redneck hillbillies than a sophisticated policing force.
