The ability to carry a firearm would be completely voluntary. Those of you that are against armed cockpits would not be required to carry.
Those that are against scare me because you do not have any viable solutions. Keep locking your selves into the paper mache vault and wear those pink sunglasses.
The US government is great at diverting attention from the real need of its people. Security is a joke and will continue to be as long as the Keystone cops are in charge.
To those that think that this coming from some gun happy "cowboy", you are wrong. I do not own a gun, but would be willing to go to any training program that would make me competent to safely use a tool of self defense. As it stands today, all the bad guys have guns and know that we do not. Still feel safe?
