I nā kahua mokulele he nui o ʻAmelika, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā pū ma waho o ka palekana

ATLANTA - Ua hoʻololi ʻia ka lele ʻana ma ʻAmelika mai ka lā 11 o Kepakemapa, me ka hoʻoneʻe ʻana o nā mea kaʻa i ko lākou mau kāmaʻa, lawe i kā lākou kamepiula kamepiula a hoʻokomo i nā wai a me nā gels i loko o nā ʻeke plastik maʻemaʻe. Eia nō naʻe, kūpono loa ke lawe ʻana i kahi pū i hoʻouka ʻia a hiki i kahi mākaʻikaʻi palekana ma kekahi o nā mokulele nui loa o ka ʻāina.

Ua ʻike ʻia kahi noiʻi Associated Press o nā mokulele 20 ʻoi loa o ʻAmelika ʻehiku o lākou - Philadelphia, Detroit, Phoenix, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Dallas/Fort Worth, Los Angeles a me Kapalakiko - e ʻae i ka poʻe me ka ʻae pū e lawe i nā mea kaua ma nā wahi ākea o ke kahua.

Ke ʻōlelo nei kekahi poʻe loea anti-terrorism, he puka palekana kēia e hiki ke hoʻoweliweli i nā limahana mokulele, nā mea kaʻa a me nā poʻe e kali ana e kiʻi iā lākou a ʻike paha iā lākou. Manaʻo kekahi ʻo ka ʻae ʻana i nā pū i nā pahu e noi ana iā lākou e hoʻopio ʻia ma luna o ka mokulele.

"Inā ʻaʻole paʻa kou kahua mokulele, a laila, pilikia ka palekana o kāu mau mokulele," wahi a Rafi Ron, ka luna hoʻomalu o Ben Gurion Airport ma ʻIseraʻela e hana nei ma ke ʻano he kūkākūkā mokulele. "ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻokaʻawale i nā mea ʻelua."

Wahi a nā mana ʻē aʻe, ʻaʻole ʻokoʻa nā wahi palekana o ka terminal mai nā wahi ākea ʻē aʻe a ʻaʻole ia e ʻae i nā palena kūikawā.

"ʻAʻole ʻoi aku ka hopohopo ma mua o kahi mall a i kahi kahua kaʻaahi," wahi a ka mākaʻi Philadelphia ʻo Lt. Louis Liberati.

Ma lalo o ke kānāwai pekelala, ʻaʻole i kānāwai i nā wahi a pau ke hoʻāʻo e lawe i ka pū ma o kahi māka palekana. ʻO ke koena o ka terminal, ʻoiai, ua lōʻihi ka mana o ka mokuʻāina a me nā luna kūloko.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Jon Allen, he waha ʻōlelo no ka Federal Transportation Security Administration, ʻaʻole i lawe ka TSA i kahi kūlana ma luna o nā pū ma nā mokulele a ʻaʻohe ona mana ma lalo o ke kānāwai federal e pāpā iā lākou.

Ua alakaʻi ka pilikia i ka hakakā ma Georgia ma waena o kahi kānāwai mokuʻāina hou e ʻae ai i nā pū i ka halihali lehulehu a me ka pāpā ʻana o ke kahua mokulele ʻo Atlanta i nā mea kaua i hoʻouka ʻia. ʻO ka mahina i hala aku nei, ua hoʻopau ka luna kānāwai federal i kahi hoʻopiʻi i hoʻopiʻi ʻia i ke kūlanakauhale e kahi pūʻulu kuleana pū. I ka hoʻolohe mua ʻana, ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hiki i nā pū ma ke kahua mokulele ʻoi loa o ka honua ke "hoʻoweliweli koʻikoʻi i ka palekana a me ka pono." Ua hoʻopiʻi ka hui pū.

Ua haʻohaʻo ʻo Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., ka luna o ke Kōmike Hoʻomalu Homeland Home, i ka ʻike ʻana ua ʻae nā mokulele i nā mea kaua no nā makahiki, a ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e hiki i ka ʻAhaʻōlelo ke neʻe e pāpā i ka hana. I loko o kahi leka o Iulai iā TSA, ua kapa ʻo Thompson i nā pū i nā pahu "he hoʻoweliweli i ka palekana o nā huakaʻi mokulele."

Eia nō naʻe, ʻoiai ma kēlā mau mokulele e pāpā ana i nā pū, ʻaʻole e hoʻopololei nā luna i ka poʻe a hoʻohana paha i nā mea ʻike metala ma luna o lākou i ko lākou komo ʻana i ka pahu. Ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe loea, ʻaʻole hiki ke hana ʻia kahi papa o ka palekana e like me ia ma nā kahua mokulele ʻo ʻAmelika.

I ka makahiki 2002, ua pepehi kekahi kanaka malihini mai ʻAigupita i ʻelua mau kānaka a hōʻeha i kekahi mau mea ʻē aʻe ma kahi kokoke i kahi kūʻai tiketi ma ke kahua mokulele ʻo Los Angeles ma mua o ka pana ʻia ʻana e kahi kiaʻi palekana El Al Israel Airlines.

ʻO kekahi poʻe nona nā pū e lawe ana i kā lākou mau mea kaua i ke kahua mokulele e ʻōlelo nei i ka pono o ka pale. ʻO kekahi poʻe e lawe pinepine i ka pū a ʻōlelo lākou ʻaʻole lākou makemake e pilikia i ka ʻimi ʻana i kahi e waiho ai inā hele lākou i ke kahua mokulele.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Joel Rosenberg, he kumu aʻo pū ma Minneapolis, e lawe mau ana ʻo ia i ka pū i ke kahua mokulele o ke kūlanakauhale a ʻaʻole i lohe i kekahi pilikia i hoʻokumu ʻia e ke kulekele.

"ʻO ka poʻe e mālama i ke kānāwai e mālama i ke kānāwai inā he .38 snubby ma ko lākou ʻūhā a ʻaʻole paha," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia.

ʻO kekahi mau mokulele e ʻae ana i nā pū e ʻōlelo nei lākou e hoʻāʻo nei e hoʻokō i ka moʻomeheu o ko lākou poʻe kipa.

"Makemake mākou i kā mākou mau pū ma Michigan," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo Scott Wintner, kahi ʻōlelo no Detroit Metro Airport.

Pēlā nō, ʻo Brian Murnahan, ka mea haʻiʻōlelo no ke kahua mokulele ʻo Dallas-Fort Worth, i ʻōlelo ʻia ke kulekele o kāna mokulele e alakaʻi ʻia e ka pragmatism: lawe pinepine nā Texans i nā pū. "ʻOiai ʻaʻole mākou e paipai i ka poʻe e lawe mai i nā pū i ke kahua mokulele, ke hoʻāʻo nei mākou e kūpono," wahi āna.

He kānāwai koʻikoʻi ko ka mokuʻāina ʻē aʻe no ka pu.

"Ua hoʻolaha ʻia ma nā wahi a pau," wahi a Marlene McClinton o Houston-George Bush Intercontinental Airport. "Akā ʻo Texas kēia," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, e wehewehe ana ua haʻi aku ke kahua mokulele i kekahi mau malihini no ka hewa. ʻO ka lawe ʻana i kahi mea kaua ma ke kānāwai he hewa ia ma Texas, hiki ke hoʻopaʻi ʻia a hiki i hoʻokahi makahiki i loko o ka hale paʻahao a me ka uku $4,000.

Ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe kākoʻo i nā pono pū, hiki i nā kamaʻāina mālama kānāwai me nā pū ke kī aʻe a ʻoki pōkole i ka huhū o kahi kanaka pū. Akā, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Ron, ka loea palekana Israeli, ʻo ka mea hope loa e pono ai nā māka palekana mokulele he huahekili o nā pōkā a ʻaʻole maopopo ʻo wai ke kanaka ʻino.

"Ke alakaʻi nei i ka haunaele," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia, "a hiki ke alakaʻi i ka pōʻino."
