I'm fairly certain they did this in New York, Chicago and San Francisco as well, but can't remember specifically.

This has been going on since 2012. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homelan...dvisory_System
Are you from the future!?!? Edit---I remember seeing the boards in L.A. a few years ago as well I think. At least I think it was boards...either that or the announcement, that was like five years ago now.

All this security stuff is starting to get ######ed as far as I'm concerned. People gonna have to eventually start saying eff you to the TSA. They've gone from a useful security tool to that aunt of yours who's just learned how to email you and constantly sends you stuff that looks like it was pulled out of the National Enquirer or some other ridiculous tabloid. Like really...not being able to move in the last hour of your flight? Just stupid.

In my unprofessional opinion, I think this guy may have just been a looney and when things went south he blamed it on al-Qaeda. Trying to take the heat off himself a bit and that sort of thing.

Oh and one more thing...trying to bomb Detroit? Really? Detroit? Wouldn't that just be improving the city?
