ORIGINAL: TheHeretic Homeland Security is responsible for the outcome, Jlf. You need to man up about that. Anything less just makes you look like a koolaid drinking bootlick. Homeland security DID finally catch the name, after it went to a HOMELAND SECURITY agency, or are you too dense to realize that? Every step of the process prior to that was not part of the TSA or Homeland Security. IF the airline would have updated their list after being notified that there had been a change to the list, his name would have been flagged before he got near the plane. The airline has admitted they did not update the no fly list and thus, according to the list they had, he was not on it. NOW, for the last time, considering you are throwing insults around, any fool or idiot can see for the entire process to be fool proof, the TSA would have to be present at every step of the process from reservations to ticket pickup to boarding passes. The TSA updated their list, which is a data base, as soon as the change had been made. The fact that the TSA does NOT have access to the ticket information until AFTER the final manifest is handed over would indicate that the TSA should, per YOUR argument, be present at every stage. The reservation people are to report a person who is on the no fly list is attempting to purchase a ticket, the ticket counter people are to notify TSA if someone on the list picks up a ticket, and the people handing out boarding passes are to notify TSA if someone attempts to board a plane who is on the list. ALL OF THIS WORKS ONLY IF THE AIRLINE UPDATES THEIR LIST WHEN NOTIFIED OF A CHANGE. The only way to correct the problem is to replace airline personnel with TSA personnel at every stage of the process, and are you willing to pay the increased taxes to cover the expense?
