(Prestwick, Scotland) Here are some do-gooder loonies with entirely too much time on their hands.
From Scotsman.com:
ANTI-WAR protesters broke into Prestwick airport for a third night running, prompting alarm among security experts that aircraft could be vulnerable to terrorists.The peaceniks were able to board a U.S. C130 aircraft and examine documentation and manuals. One entered the cockpit. Additionally, it's reported that the group caused some damage to the aircraft and the perimeter fence.
Five activists were arrested by police after boarding an aircraft belonging to the US Air National Guard in the latest incident, just before midnight on Monday.
The group from Trident Ploughshares broke through the airport's perimeter fence and boarded the plane.
The peace group described themselves as "war-crime detectives" and said they were searching for arms being sent to Israel for use in attacks against Lebanon.
A total of 17 people appeared at Ayr Sheriff Court yesterday on charges relating to the three protests.
I think security at Prestwick Airport deserves some management attention.
