this system stays in place, and not fly, period, if it spreads to other

I just cancelled my weeklong trip to Britain, where I grew up,
because of these restrictions. We British suffered 20 years of the
IRA bombing us on a near-daily basis and they couldn't do as much
damage as 21 20-somethings who were UNSUCCESSFUL in their attempts.
I've been spoiled by electronics, communications devices and
disappointed by baggage screeners too much to pack my laptop in an
open suitcase.
