sorry for the multiple Posts, but: swords my ***. how the hell is someone going to get a sword past airport security? even on a domestic flight. I get enough crap about the EYELETS on my BOOTS. we're a nation of fat, spineless, sheep. I would have at least given them enough credit to have used shanks the size of a shoe sole, but BOX CUTTERS?! give me a break!

as a side note, would that not really screw with the weight distribution of the plane to put all those people in the back? (especially if they are fat americans?) didnt some female pop singer just die on takeoff because her pilot didnt properly distribute the load of the aircraft?
