Wow, I am just amazed at how gullible people are, especially when they are afraid. Yesterday, American flight 1304 was delayed and the plane was searched, and the flight cancled due to a tip that their may be a bomb on board. Now, normally people might ask, "Isn't that a good thing?". However it turns out that the search was made on the basis of a "pshycic's" tip! Its sad when we are willing to listen a wack job and not common sense. It seems that a belief in the supernatural and psuedoscience is alive and well in America.

This makes me want to laugh and cry at the same time. God, some people are stupid!
At the very least, the person who ordered that search (Doug Perkins, it would appear) should be fired and should never be allowed to hold any security-related post anywhere ever again.
Could this mean we now have a "faith-based" federal TSA?
