We need higher security.

Israel has VERY high security since they are on high alert 24/7/365. 5 checkpoints to get on a plane. Two undercover guards on each flight. I also want to mention that Israel has never had a hijacking in like the past 30 years. Coincidence? I think not.

Is this feasible? Sure it is. Will people like it? Not at all. Will it make the country sleep a little better? I would. I think it should be mandatory that every piece of luggage get's searched and every person gets patted down. This will make airline prices soar but can you put a price on security?

Now I've heard some people complaining that these searches are a violation of our fourth amendment rights. Are they? Not at all. When you buy a ticket, you agree to whatever the FAA and the airline agreement is. No one is forcing you to get on a plane. If you don't like the price hikes or being searched, I suggest you drive.
