polonius,
It's all about control... the real problem, I believe, lies with the majority of people who just suck the bs that's fed to them believing that they are safer. It's also because TSA has a very effective PR, spinning everything they do to make it golden, while in reality, it's not.
People are EASY to control when fear comes in as a factor, and the government has been running 9/11 ragged as an excuse for everything. It's time to stop, and I'm seriously considering donating to ACLU. I'm gonna tell you one thing, though - I LOVE my country, I am VERY proud to be an American. This is just a deep low America has reached, but I have faith things will eventually improve. We've gone through rough times before.
