Yet Another "terror" incident reported by the media!

O.k, this guy gets pissed and drives through an airport fence. Pretty stupid... But, the report goes on to say "Let me replay that video, it appears there are other aircraft out on the field!" -> No sh*t Sherlock, it's a fruckin' airport, lol... And, they want perimeter fences changed. Who's goin' to pay for that? What would you prefer? Concrete walls? I'm sure military bases could be penetrated just as easy although you may not get out alive...

Media again. What would we do without them ?. Soft and easy story, days of having to work for story long gone. Terror stories (some allegations) will always make headlines.

Well it would be relatively easy to stop these sort of incidents.

A simple ditch dug out just inside the parameter fence would easily stop most vehicles from just barreling through a fence.

You then only have to deal with the gates, which can be controlled with rising concrete barriers.

It would be easier just to place some landmines at few yard intervals.

'Terror' must be the most overused word in Tabloid headlines.

A week or two ago I saw a headline about Big Jack's Terror Fall Down Stairs. He fell down some stairs, basically.

Don't get me wrong, you can do damage to yourself falling down stairs, especially as you get older. But 'Terror'?
