I’m not doubting your honesty **Quasi**. I’m sure you did see such a story. I am, however, rather skeptical about how likely such an incident would be, and how much of a threat this sort of thing actually poses.

Basically, i disagree with your assertion that America has relaxed its vigilance too much. I’ve seen no evidence that it has.
