Hint: Driving is not an option.
But isn't there more to it than what you say? Why give TSA that much control over your life? Ok, you fly because you have to. But what if you wish to go somewhere for personal reason, but refuse to go because you refuse to fly? It jsut seems to me that those who decide not to fly have in fact inadvertantly give TSA a good deal of control over a specific part of their life.
If it was me and I despised TSA and it's policies and how it treated people (which isn't me
) , i believe my personal form of protest would be to go where I want to go and enjoy myself in spite of TSA to spite TSA. I would NEVER give up that much control of my one and only life to someone else.
But this is just my opinion.
