Honestly, I feel hopeless.

I've talked to almost everyone from my family and even a few friends, and virtually all of them support the liquid ban. I feel like a black sheep amongst white sheep.

What I don't understand is, WHY do so many people, especially those who rarely fly, mindlessly support the liquid ban, both liberal and conservative? I mean, I tried to argue that before and even after 911, millions of people flew with liquid, and we always faced that risk of explosive liquid, then that ONE incident happened, and now we face a permament ban all because of that? Talk about paranoia. But, their arguments were that they would prefer to feel safer on the plane than to face the possibility of flying with explosives. HELLO! You've been flying for YEARS now facing the possibility. HECK, even nowadays, even NOW, we face dying. We are NOT guaranteed to be safe no matter what, no matter how strict security is.

I'm so frustrated... it's like my own family and friends has been brainwashed by TSA or something, and now they believe that even WATER, for heck's sake, can be dangerous! Gahhhhh! My family is mostly anti-Bush and think that the Iraq war is needless, but when it comes to airport security, I wouldn't be surprised if they enforced STRIP flying whenever it comes in effect!

Honestly, I don't feel like an average joe at all... how long will it be until I'm considered dangerous merely because I dare to think for myself?

Screw this.
