Derek - Well, as you say, the laws have been there forever and like them or not they are well known. And maybe they have done something to prevent hijackings... other than the 9/11 flights I cant remember a single hijacking. I took a quick look on Wikipedia and the last passenger plane hijacked in the US prior to 9/11 was in 1987 and none since then. As far as having 20 dudes carrying guns on airplanes, from some of the folks I have seen a public ranges, I would be more worried about them shooting a hole in the side of the plane than preventing a hijacking.
Which would do absolutely nothing, other than make a hole. And your point is?
I'm waiting for this awesome explanation you're about to give us all about how a few innocent people being shot and possibly killed in a crossfire is somehow worse than the entire plane of people being flown into a building. So let's hear it, because otherwise I think your entire post is nonsense.
