Why? Because pain is induced when the bee makes a mistake isn't funny. Why do we always abuse and take advantage of the smartest and most innocent animals (i.e., dolphins, anyone?) in an attempt to deter, fight, or defend against hostile nations or even citizens? What about inducing PAIN on the baggage handlers? More PAIN on the lazy asses checking your carry-on luggage that STILL miss guns, powder, and bomb making devices? TAZERS??????????? What the hell is wrong with this picture? Bees have their own job to do - mandated just for them - no one else is here on the planet to do it. Carry on luggage and metal detector random checkers are easily trained, tazed, and replaced. Besides, _that_ would be funny. This one I don’t find funny. Why?
