Yes. Let's keep it in context. The risk that any of us will die as the result of an airplane-related terrorist act is miniscule. The kind of money the US government is spending on countering this miniscule risk is absurd considering the other terrorist risks that go unaddressed. And it is outrageous that US citizens are asked to slowly surrender their rights in order to counter a statistically insignificant risk, especially considering that tens of millions of tons of cargo flies in passenger jets with no screening.
