I had to ride the NYC subway today, and I vowed that I would not consent to be searched under any circumstances. In fact, if I were turned away and wasn't permitted to get on the train, then it was my intent to come back to my office, submit my resignation, and go work somewhere else.

It's one thing to search people at random in the name of public safety, but it is grossly unacceptable in a place where law-abiding citizens aren't even allowed to carry firearms for their own protection.

"Public safety," my @ss.

Two different issues, but you have a point.
