So i was in the airport on friday and i saw a sign that said IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING and i thought about it for just a moment and decided that if i would see something i would not say anything. After all the trouble i they put me through they can deal with it themselves. I’m not on their team anymore, huh?
Why the double post?
Doesnt that ad refer to reporting if you see a cop get shot or something? I would thing it to be more appropriate to say something when you see something
stanleyc- it’s not only referring to a cop getting shot.It’s telling you to report anything suspicious looking like an abandoned bag or something like that.
Actually, I was once in Penn station and there was a backpack sitting there for like 15 minutes with no apparent owner. I went over to the nearest cop and told him about it. (It was right after the whole Times Square bombing scare so I was paranoid…) It ended up being nothing but you never know. And better safe than sorry, right?
When they ask you to take off your shoes at the security check in the airport I once asked how often these floors get clean and mentioned I really didn’t want to pick up someone’s athletes foot or anything like that. They were not amused.
How would you feel if the thing you saw that went unreported ended up being an explosive device that hurt or killed some people?
Reporting suspicious things is an obligation as part of society.
