Sen. Schumer proposes "no-ride list" for Amtrak trains - Yahoo! News
NEW YORK (Reuters) – A senator on Sunday called for a "no-ride list" for Amtrak trains after intelligence gleaned from the raid on Osama bin Laden's compound pointed to potential attacks on the nation's train system.
Sen. Charles Schumer said he would push as well for added funding for rail security and commuter and passenger train track inspections and more monitoring of stations nationwide.
Sort of a general purpose, universal, 24/7 curfew. Everybody under the bed.
Later: On the other hand, now that I think of it, what a terrific excuse for taking a day off from work! "Honest, Boss, they wouldn't let me on the train."
