It's just that some folks are very passionate for their hatred towards us.
It that Freedom of Expression that makes us the great country that we are.
You know, after thinking about it, I think I feel the same way about the guy at Chipotle tonight who made my chicken burrito. The way he scooped the bin full of rice....simply fluid. The effortless way the black beans were delicately danced around that tortilla of taste...yummm. The way he put the sour cream on there -- MAGNIFIQUE!
Ridiculous paragraph? Pretty synonymous with the way I feel about some comments in this string.
If you think people who disagree with the TSA have agendas, think again. We are simply pointing out our frustrations with the inconsistencies and lack of security outside of the $5b dog-and-pony show. Pardon me for thinking that $5 billion a year should produce consistent secuirty measures, consistently catching things like butcher knives, and at least the retrieval of fake bombs. I don't think we should have to pack the items in our checked bags by prioritizing by what we think the TSA may or may not steal.
We might have Freedom of Expression, but when we're dealing with an government agency that skirts the Fourth Amendment and classifies 99.6% of their information as SSI, the Constitutional warm and fuzzies don't work.
