Let me be a little more clear.
The rules were already in place on 9/10. The airlines broke the rules.
No, this is not like suing the builder of the WTC, or McDonalds, or placing the blame on someone else. This is blaming the sorry motherfuckers who broke the rules.
If I ignore the rules about having a road-worthly vehicle, and my no-brake-having ass crashes into someone, that's my fucking fault.
If I leave a loaded pistol on the sidewalk in front of my house, and some kid shoots himself in the head with it, I get a heaping helping of jail time.
If you ignore the rules to protect your planes from being hijacked, and they get hijacked, that's your fault. It wan't a question of vigilance (or lack there of), or some esoteric measure of security. The airlines broke the rules, and people died as a result.
