I simply pointed out the very logical argument that pilots--because of the nature of our jobs--should be allowed access to KCM, while FAs should not. I made no comment as to the morality or backgrounds of pilots vs. FAs, and no mention of "good vs. evil"...and I know it's the same background check, and I know there are unscrupulous pilots out there.

Yes--there are bad pilots. Yes--many FAs are great, educated, stable people who are competent and professional. But you won't change my mind that it is insane to give all FAs the capability to take down airliners by allowing them access to KCM lines. Before they were allowed to be a part of KCM, they had no more ability to bring weapons/explosives into an airport/onto an airplane than a regular passenger. With KCM, they have been accorded the same level of responsibility as pilots to not take down airplanes. I don't think that's smart at all.
