are weapons and explosives checks at airport check-in also unconstitutional?

Care to point me to the Power granted to the Federal Government in the Constitution to perform such checks? I can save you some time, it doesn't exist! You could make the case that as a Private Industry, the Airlines, and a Citizen entering into a Contract, a Ticket, that they have the right to do so, but the Feds? No way! Blackbird.

OK, so let's outlaw the TSA and just let everybody walk onto the planes with whatever they want.

Care to point me to the Power/right granted to you in the Constitution to carry such items aboard commercial aircraft?

I can save you some time, it doesn't exist!

At least the specifics as granted in the 2nd Amendment....and that is what your specious argument is based on.....cherry picking.

Or do you hold the belief that individuals should dictate the 2nd Amend allows them to carry explosives/weapons wherever they damn well please? As though the framers of the Constitution did not believe in common sense.

News bulletin....you do not, via your interpretation of the 2nd rights, have the explicit right to endanger my life with explosives when I board aircraft.

Rent a truck to transport.

Period.
