Yes, could be dangerous: last year, 7/7, lots of people die in the tube. But, what do you think about violence that we face every day in Brazil? I used to be afraid to go out, the PCC (SP's mafia), stopping on traffic lights.
No, I'd rather stay here. I can go to a park near home, with my children and I am not afraid. I can stay at home alone and I am not afraid. I can drive with my windows open and I not afraid.
Anyway, there’s no tube here in Cambridge, and our airport is too small…
But, let’s talk about this problem here. 22 were arrested. Who? They didn’t give us names or facts. We hear phrases like that:
“…We think we have the main suspects…”
“…Substantial threat of terrorist attacks…”
In fact, I think people here are not afraid, they are mad with all this unusual stress to travel. Several people are stocked at airports for hours, even days. Flight companies are canceling almost all flights.
Some are lucky and can catch a flight, but there are other problems:
For example, some musicians from Russia can’t travel with their instruments in the cabin. So they will probably have to travel by rail via Paris. Can you imagine that? And they have a contract with the flight company that allows them flight with their instruments in the cabin. They paid for it. ( See complete text here)
What about inspections? Everybody must pass for a body search. Nothing may be carried in pockets.
See the list of forbidden items here.
Next time they will ask us to travel naked.
