Can you please not submit this kind of crap here?

Most of us come here, at hacker news, because our interest in what we expect to read from this site is very specific and narrow.

To find and discuss a more general topic we go to sites like reddit/digg/slashdot.

Even though occasional important world events like MJ's death are not frowned upon here, pls don't take it as an excuse that anything and everything goes.

Thanks.

I like how MJ's death is considered import, whereas news about TSA & security which is a common topic here is somehow not?
I don't know. This all just seems so unlikely. Far more likely that he misunderstood what he saw.
Is there any authentication here? These are links to two posts on a local news site. Has anyone actually checked the story out? Any independent confirmation? No offense, but some pretty important journalism got skipped here. This by itself is worthless.

And I'm not sure what he's alleging exactly, just that the official story doesn't mesh with what he claims to have seen. But not in any way which is particularly damning to the security agencies. It's essentially a conspiracy theory which is all cover up and no misdemeanor.
Not very plausible and confusing conspiracy theory with no independent verification whatsoever.
