154. The 9/11 hijackers didn't need boxcutters.
It was the the false claim that they had a bomb and were going to blow up the plane if passengers didn't cooperate which was the main way they took over the planes.

Today, passengers in First Class are given metal steak knives with their meals, and so the TSA keeping us from bringing aboard box cutters is absurd.
