This PC stuff is going to have to stop

Now we can't bring MP3 players and liquids or gells on planes.

Next will be full body cavity searches.

Enough

I agree. We just can't live like this- everyone herded like animals and treated like criminals. It will be a VERY long time before I put myself through the ordeal of flying again. What really makes me laugh is all the people that are more than happy to put up with all this 'in the name of safety'. Not being able to bring anything to drink or for entertainment for yourself or your kids on who-knows-how many hours long flight? Give me a break. All this when they have cut back in-flight service/hospitality to basically zero on top of it all? You're lucky to get a dixie-cup full of water and a handful of pretzels on a flight, and now you can't even bring your own? Now they'll have you throw out your water before you board and charge you $5 for a bottle in flight. It's out of hand entirely. What's next- you can't have liquids on the street, ona bus or the subway? It's not far-fetched at all to think that's next. And people will smile and say it's fine as long as it's for safety!

its really bad...

unfortunately, I believe it will only get worse.

These crazed muslims are obsessed with getting us.
Eventually, someone is going to get a nuke and set it
off- its just a matter of time. And who would we nuke
back? Many of the london terrorists were born in Britain, one was even white. There is no one 'country'- it is the idea of Islam that we are fighting.

I feel kind of sad to say that we should enjoy even
the current time period such as this, because one day we
will be looking back on it as a bygone age when we were
(relatively) happy and safe.

I'm not happy about giving up comforts for safety either. We are where we are at though, because we are a caring country and that has been used against us. I'm all for no searches and screening PEOPLE. Unfortunately, we aren't there yet. Until we are, they can hold my stuff.

I don't think it is about being politically correct. It is about controlling people and having them willingly comply. "Political Correctness" is all about manipulation and control. There has been a very effective campaign to train the masses, so that there is a Pavlovian response to those two words. When we hear, "That's not politically correct." Most actually, apologize and rephrase, or alter their behavior. Just like when our old friend Pavlov rang that bell and the dogs salivated.
