Airport searches are not a violation of the second amendment. If you don’t like it don’t fly.

Would the same logic apply if they implemented searches before you could go into an auto parts store? How about a grocery store?

They already do this to you if you dare to go into a courthouse. I think they should put a sign over courthouses and the US Senate building saying "Abandon all rights, Ye who enter these gates".

I am curious, do you think that the two instances Getting on a plane and and auto parts store are the same?

Can you not see why extra security and checks would need to be made at a court house?

I don’t think that the TSA is doing things right. I am all in favor of profiling. It would cut back on the stupid handling of cases like the ones mentioned in this article.

But I think that because we are in a war (even though the government doesn’t seem to think so - unless it is against us) steps have to be taken to ensure that flights can not be taken over as they were on 9/11. I am not saying that the government is doing it right, by far. But I can see how proper use of screening can be done that some people will balk at anyway.
