John S. Pistole

It is incumbent, I believe, on all of us to ensure that doesn't happen again.

If he wasn't the president of the United States, yeah, I think we would have seen obstruction indictment against the person.

I think that's one of the keys, Anderson, because it seems like special counsel Mueller walked right up to the line of indicting, especially on the obstruction of justice with the ten -- let's call them overt acts and conspiracy, if you…

The fact is that he could be charged and maybe charged when he's no longer the president.

We know there is no 100 percent guarantee in preventing terrorists and others from doing bad things, yet we believe based on the extensive input we have received, the actions I have outlined today provide a measured approach to mitigate…

It is not good law enforcement. It is not good security work from our perspective. It is unconstitutional.

I share your concern about the way we treat these heroes.

The fact that virtually everybody traveling every day is not a terrorist, so why treat them as such?

Our members are mortified by the announcement of a little more than 1 week ago by TSA Administrator Pistole that allows weapons back on airplanes.

The fact remains accurate through today and underscores a point that in aviation security, it is not the object per se that is dangerous but the individual who intends to use that object to inflict harm that presents the danger.

The decision is irrational and makes no logical sense.
