There’s a storm brewing over the ongoing airline security fiasco, reported by today’s LA Times. More and more people are starting to realize that the cure may be worse than the disease.

Even experts who believe the government is doing as well as can be expected say officials have failed to spell out passengers’ responsibilities and rights. Another gap is a lack of clear protocols for dealing with minor incidents. Without such guidelines, even a sarcastic comment from a frustrated traveler can escalate into a federal felony charge.

Yup. Zero tolerance, and zero intelligence.

Unfortunately, Fox News still doesn’t seem to get it. I heard them talk about a poll they took as to whether people are still “afraid to fly.” Why don’t they take a poll to see if people are too disgusted and irritated to fly?
