2nd Amendment would have prevented September 11th attacks

September 11, 2001 could have been stopped if airlines had ability to provide armed protection …"I said the responsibility for protecting passengers falls with the airline, not the government--and not the passengers. The airline's responsible for the aircraft and the passengers. If we wouldn't have been dependent on the federal government to set all the rules, which meant no guns & no resistance, then the terrorists may well have had second thoughts, because the airlines would have had the responsibility."
