It's not crocodile tears. Some of us really care about freedom and don't just pay it lip-service.

I didn't know the Constitution mentioned planes. The Constitution doesn't mention horses either -- used for interstate travel back then too -- but that doesn't eliminate the right of an American to engage in interstate travel by horse. Yes, Congress could regulate that, but that doesn't make it right. The current US government may regulate how many times an adult couple engage in consensual sexual activity too, but that doesn't make it right either.

Where is the gate for the "Totalitarian Air" flight?
