On Topic... What the hell is this adminstration thinking?

... He said nothing about port security. He was speaking of port operations. For some reason, many of you are confusing the two. Last I heard, we were barely able to check 10% of incoming containers. If a hostile party controlled operations, do you think that number could change, either by manipulating security, or other means? |

Not unless we beef up port security, i.e., the Coast Guard and Border Patrol. Crane operators don't inspect containers. -- 'Til next time, John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |

Do you think the operator could negatively affect security if they wanted to? |

We'd have nothing to worry about. Doug, no where in our posts have I commented on my opinion of the idea. I tried to keep my posts non-political. I did respond with my opinion to basskisser, however. -- 'Til next time, John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |

I can't imagine the unions allowing any terrorist activities to occur regardless of who the supervisors are. -- 'Til next time, John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |
