Conservative Rumblings

Good call, Dear Leader. Let’s decide that we’re no longer at “war” with terrorists, let our guard down, and then disarm our pilots. I’m sure that’s going to be really successful. Unfortunately, that’s successful for the terrorists, not for us.

After the September 11 attacks, commercial airline pilots were allowed to carry guns if they completed a federal-safety program. No longer would unarmed pilots be defenseless as remorseless hijackers seized control of aircraft and rammed them into buildings.

Now President Obama is quietly ending the federal firearms program, risking public safety on airlines in the name of an anti-gun ideology.

As the article states, Obama is catering to an extremely small segment of society (the radical anti-gun crowd) at the expense of the protection of the America public.
