Some bizarro-looking photo on a scanner doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the people on the Lockerbie flight were inconvenienced when they got scattered across half of Scotland. This is one of those times when the government is damned if they do and damned if they don’t.

If that’s true, then why don’t we pick freedom instead of tyranny since life has problems either way?

And it’s false logic to suggest that the Lockerbie victims would be alive with the porn scanners, but not with the 2009 security levels.

The real question is whether you have ANY limits to what liberties you surrender for an increment of safety. Cavity searches of all passengers if you were certain it saved one life?

For many people, this crosses the line. Do you even have a line?

Thank the lawyers and the politicians. This is the one thing the French do that I admire. You can do whatever you feel like doing as long as you are willing to face the consequences.
