Jets can kill people on the ground, too. And usually have many people in them.

That is why the require a co-pilot. If something happens to a small plane pilot it would not cause as much damage as a crashing jet. So one pilot can go in them.

I'd hate to think what would happen if we had just one subway station or bus bomber. Or a theater. That happened in Russia and they dealt with it and moved on. This is the USA, where it wouldn't be an hour before some talking head would wonder what the government could have done to stop it.
