Daily Post that Was Supposed To Be For October 9 But I'm Writing It Now

In my last post, I proposed that while our government improves airport security, they also need to cut down on the amount of time it takes get through each security checkpoint. With this post, I was ask to compare the amount of time it takes to get through security at a train station compared to the airport. The security at train stations, I have found, is rather short and not nearly as time consuming as airport security. This is due to the fact that the government is more focused on improving airport security since it has already been exploited with the attacks on 9-11. However, often times train tickets can be more expensive than plane tickets.

Well, I didnt know that before. Looks like my plan of hijacking a train and crashing it into the pentagon will be much easier.

Lower amounts of security at train stations are because they are a different form of travel medium. While the government is more focused on airport security, what can a train really destroy?
