-

They'll leave advertisement display cases open where a terrorist could insert a huge explosive device into it and kill many people. But let's go search people's bags to make mentally retarded people feel safer.
Wouldn't they need a bag to bring this “huge explosive device” to the display case to accomplish this insertion you speak of?

You found a way to go even lower. Come on, steve.
Let’s all agree:
- Bag checks suck.
- Riding Metro can be a miserable experience.
- Metro is incompetent and can’t address basic repairs.
That being said, let’s now blow this out of proportion.
You’re welcome.
Edit: already two replies since I started writing this. That's a new record.

Not everyone gets searched. It's just random, hence why the search is pointless. If you had 4 terrorists with bombs and they search 1 of them, the other 3 get by. Also, if you are wearing an explosive belt, it's not in a bag, hence it won't get discovered in a bag search.

Would you rather me say moron or idiot, imbecile or the other words that were replaced by mentally retarded? Only someone of very low intelligence thinks bag searches will actually make them safer given not everyone searched, and that only bags are searched. A suicide bomber doesn’t put a bomb in a bag, they wear the bomb, which the search won’t discover.
So these bag searches are designed to make STUPID people feel safer, not actually BE safer.

Drat, I've been one-upped by a strategic genius.
He's already bored with the hate crime thread, so here's another one.

How is it out or prortion? I get treated like a criminal while Metro employers give terrorists ways to kill people? You realize how much they spend on those bomb resistant garbage pails after years of not having any garbage pails? Yet they provide a method for terrorists to kill people by not beothering to close and lock the display case? I constantly see these display cases open. I guaranty you that case at Courthouse metro will be left open for several more days.

You do realize that the term mental retardation was a then politically correct term to replace terms like imbecile, moron, idiot, etc? Shows the stupidity of political correctness, because you'l constantly need replacement terms because one day “mentally challenged” will be viewed by spinless pc wimps as being offensive.

You answered your own question:

I missed the day WMATA was handing out grenades at the Metro entrance.
You realize how much they spend on those bomb resistant garbage pails after years of not having any garbage pails?

Thank you for exceeding my expectations!
