Where are the armed pilots?

Of course it's absurd. That's my point. It is no more or less absurd than
the OP who drew the conclusion that it is too risky to fly on an airplane
without an armed pilot, due to the hint that was provided on 9/11.

That compares apples and oranges. These analogies make no sense.

One interesting thing about this incident is that it took place in New
York City, where only the criminals are allowed to have guns.

I believe you either read my post out of context, or you misread it
altogether. Perhaps this approach is more direct and will better clarify my
opinion.

I think I read it just fine, but you're offering badly twisted logic
as a basis for equating vigilance with paranoia or cowardice. In real
life, it doesn't work that way.

Not that my opinion is so important in the overall scheme of things...

I'm glad that you're sharing it. :-)
