I don't fly a great deal. Probably average between 10-15k miles a year.

I have serious concerns about government intrusion where it doesn't belong. Although, I suppose a case could be made that the federal government does have a legitimate/constitutional role to play in airline safety due to interstate commerce and border control issues.

I'm just curious as to what the folks here think will really work. What procedures and policies need to be in place to provide security without being unconstitutional on the one hand or just plain dumb on the other?

If this has already been hashed out feel free to point me to the appropriate thread.

Thanks.
