One reason I personally refuse to fly through any airport "controlling" access to the air. I am not a prisoner or serf in my own homeland, am I? I refuse to be disarmed of my fingernail clipper and Leatherman tool for the pleasure of flying on an airplane. Anyone who thinks airport security is anything other than the biggest oxymoron to this date is either a fool, or unaware of what goes on outside of the narrow confines of a passenger terminal.

I agree.

The Constitution reads that until it has been proven to the exclusion of reasonable doubt, we have the right to be presumed innocent of comitting a crime.

Once you enter airport property, this is not true.

oh,come on! isn't a little freedom a small price to pay for that warm,fuzzy feeling of being protected from ourselves?*grin* I thought the gun control folks were being way too quiet. Maybe Gov. Ventura will pay them a visit and body-slam these fine elected offals.*grin* oops! that should have been officals. how careless of me!
