  3. Where does it say this was done to deliberately cause a problem? I have direct information form someone involved. the size and shape of the filled condoms was consistant with drug carrying devices not stress relievers. Though these relievers may exist at the school. they were put in the luggage for another reason than relieving stress. Besides the point that it was intentional or not, she should not be suing. Either way this is a situation gotten out of hand. I have read the school thinks the lawsuit is ill advised and without merit. I did a fair amount of checking before I posted my comment. I stand by my previous statements. Besides do people always tell the truth when caught in a joke or prank. "You did what?!?!" MUFF #3722, TDSM #72, Orfun #26, Nachos Rodriguez
  4. I agree. She attends a very good college which indicates she is very smart. This was done deliberately to cause a problem. This is no better than packing a fake bomb in your luggage on the chance the screeners would catch it. Integrity - the courage to do what is right - Failed Respect - Respect for yourself and others - Failed Responsibility - Responsibility for you actions and inactions - Failed Accountability - Facing the consequences - Failed. Though I do not understand the fact the police could not distinguish flour from illegal substances quickly and think they were trying to be ass hats about this, do think she should have to pay resitution and do community service as a screener. We need to hold a high but resonable standard for our youth. If we do not, each succesive generation loses more of what it takes to become well adjusted productive adults. I have personally seen a 6th grader beat his teacher to the ground continuing to pummel him until being pulled off. Even after being pulled off he continued to fight and had to be physically restrained. His punishment, 6 months of counseling and nothing for the parents who failed him so miserably. The teachers who pulled him off and restrained him were suspended and face prosecution for abusing the child. I disagree. The facts indicate that she deliberately presented airport security personnel with a false security concern. Her actions resulted in a reasonably anticipated expenditure of scarce resources to disprove probable contraband. She deserves to be punished and if I was her parent I would throw her ass out onto the street. WTF has common sense disappeared to these days? Blutarsky 2008. No Prisoners! "You did what?!?!"

  8. Autumn said yesterday there will be a 4th otter and a Helo. I sent out the word to someone I know with a balloon. No promises on the balloon. A friend of mine will be flying Trikes and Gyro-copters on the other side of the airport and may stop by. ===================================== We can only hope------ the back ups yesterday and today were incredible. The third otter was running from lunch time on and helped a little. A fourth plane would give them some breathing room. "You did what?!?!" MUFF #3722, TDSM #72, Orfun #26, Nachos Rodriguez

  15. Though, I do not feel anyone should die for the lack of a language, I do feel we should all learn 3. 1st your native tounge - Keep your native traditions alive 2nd English - for what ever reason it has become the international language. 3rd any other This would go a long way to solve and avoid problems. ie airline pilot could not speak english and nearly caused a devastating crash My Mother lived over seas as a child and learned 7 languages. she taught us some of what she knew. When we moved to europe she told us to always learn the common language. She told us to use it in public as it was a sign of respect for those around us and disrespectful to do otherwise. She said the people around you may not understand what you are saying. She said if the group wants to speak english, great. My family comes from Germany, Ireland, Spain, England, Scotland, etc. They all tried to learn english as they wanted to become a part of America and not set themselves apart. They felt, as do I, proud to be americans, celebrated it's diversity, and embraced the unique union we form when we come together. They felt, as do I, that they were no better than others around them, that they grow through learning and sharing. Some of them were quite old. They tried and leaned enough to get by if they went out. Imagine an America if none of the immigrants ever learned english. We would not be united and certainly not great. I have learned much about other cultures and can converse in several languages. This does not make me better, it makes me better at understanding others. Consider there are places in the US where you have to speak another language to get even basic help. All public services are in a foreign language. Is this not a shutting out of the non-speaker? Is this not showing a preference of one race over another? Since we can not possibly cover all languages, let's keep it to one and provide assistance to speakers of foreign languages. ie Driving is a priveledge not a right. How safe can you be if you can't read the non-pictoral road signs? You want to become a citizen or vote but it is not worth your time to learn english. Please enjoy your visit and come again soon. We are richer by sharing our differences and coming together as a union of people. We have great potential when we work together. A language is a very good way to unite a population or to divide one.
