Changing the focus for a minute:
TSA's "spin" is that two Air Marshalls were on board, so everything was "okay".
Does anyone think that the Captain was informed in his/her role as Inflight Security Coordinator? (Doubt it!)
More importantly, how could ANY Captain justify taking off knowing these facts--I sure as he!l would not. I am paid to safely transport people, not play sting the bad guy.
It would appear that some federal agency (TSA, DEA, ATF, FBI) knew these facts and allowed the flight to proceed--and that is not acceptable.
IMHO, that is a much greater outrage than getting searched by the wand monkeys more often. Why hasn't anyone (ALPA?) mentioned this and gotten p!ssed?
