"Authorities also found a boxcutter and three large knives, according to ABC News. The two were allowed to board the flight at Chicago's O'Hare Sunday night despite security concerns surrounding al Soofi, who began his journey in Birmingham."

How in the H#LL does the TSA keep letting these guys on the flights??!!

Detained AFTER they landed?

Nothing like locking the barn door after the horse has been stolen.

The TSA is the most pathetic joke. Will it take another serious incident until they learn to protect us all from these nuts? Or will it be too late by then?
