Thank God! Some genius from the FAA or DHS decided to keep air travelers from keeping blankets or jackets on their lap along with no laptops or electronic devices for – get this – the last hour of air travel! AND, they cannot go to the bathroom for the last hour of flight either. Don’t you feel safer? Listen, this kind of ingenuity only comes through government, because the private sector could never be that creative.
This, of course is in RESPONSE to the latest terror attack from one Nigerian Muslim extremist named Umar Abdulmutallab. Mark Steyn has affectionately named him the panty-bomber due to his ingenious equipment of underwear explosives. Hiding an explosive powder in his crotch, Umar went into the bathroom and mixed his explosive concoction before returning to his seat and drawing a blanket over himself.
