If the pilots and/or co-pilots of the flights on 9/11/01 would have been properly armed and trained, over 3,000 lives would have been saved that day.

    greetings, altho i agree with the setiment, this is a classic fallacy known in math and logic called arguement contrary to fact. in truth we cann't say how things would have been if... we live in a world of cause and effect.. there is a high provability that armed pilots or air marchels or armed general public would have prevented this tragidy but without omninessius we just don't know. respt submitted dads-freehold

    I wouldn't arm pilots; I'd arm passengers. Each Coach and Business Class passenger over the age of 15 and capable of opening an emergency exit would be issued a Glock at check-in. First Class passengers would get Sig 210's, and extra peanuts. The guns would be collected upon deplaning.
