This, unfortunately, is used constantly by the pro-TSAers. Don't you dare say we need to stop the gropings and NoSes...what about the people in the twin towers? I watched that plane smash into the tower on TV...don't you dare say we'd be OK with pre-9/11 airport security, which was directly responsible for 9/11!
