Your personal freedom says that you can bike, drive, ride a train, walk, or flap your arms to get where you are going. Flying is not a requirement. And there are rules you must comply with in each and every one of those other modes of transportation. Do you complain about them as much as you complain about the rules for flying?
You and your TSA buddies have got it bass ackwards, Ron. It's the ones who want to work themselves up into a frenzy of fear and panic over the tewwowist bogey-man who have no right to interfere with the personal freedom of the rest of us to exchange a miniscule bit of "security" for a whole lot of personal freedom. Those like you who think they are putting their lives at risk by boarding an aircraft full of people who haven't been groped by semi-trained, semi-literate government flunkies are the ones who ought to just stay home or drive rather than impose their irrational fears on the rest of us. That would be far more logical than the current state of affairs in which it is rational people who are relegated to having their travel options restricted.
