I was just reading an article on how we're "unintelligent" and should "have no authority over you." We don't have any authority over you. You're free to do what you want. You have chosen to fly, and chosen to not follow rules, surrender your items, etc. etc.People just don't seem to get it. And don't see how badly we're treated.
That's what is known as a "false choice". Your treated badly because your a visible sign of the latest bout of facism this country is going through, and frankly you deserve everything you get.
