Does anyone know why we shouldn't be up in arms, or taking personal action? I was just watching an MSNBC report on the Air Marshal's Service, and in spite of the fact the number is supposed to be classified, they are out there throwing estimates of around 1500-3000 marshals, to cover an average of 30,000 flights a day. Does that make YOU feel safer? Do we need people who might intend harm to citizens on planes, trains, buses or cruise ships to be aware of our shortcomings? Why do we not think it pertinent to regularly check the Ready.gov web site for info on how to check out possible suspicious behavior, since it isn't likely that we might have a Marshal on the plane you're on?

Another question. In light of the stories about NATALEE HOLLOWAY being kidnapped in ARUBA, and many US citizens disappearing in MEXICO, possibly being sold into sex slavery, which in spite of the "supposed" US Crime estimates, is growing as a concern, has anyone encouraged our youth to NOT go to these places on "Spring Break"? Or do we need for more people to be affected by tragedy first? "Food" for thought, people, and you need to "digest" it.
