I think that I can be defiant on the ground. No, I don't think you can be defiant by giving the terrorists what they want. They want to disrupt our economy, our commerce, and our freedoms by use of fear. If they can make us afraid to do the things we've always done, in the way we've always done them, then they win. Why would we want to give in to them on this? Hiding under the bed is exactly what they want us to do! I'm flying tommorrow, and I my only precaution is that I'll be watching like an eagle any Arab males that might be on my flight. The seat cushion comes out easily and can be used as a shield, and the seatbelt itself is easily disconnected, to then be wrapped around your hand as a weapon. Of course, I'd rather have my .44 Mag., but I probably couldn't get through security with it.

Well said. However, the precautions that you are taking will not save your from a deliberate act of sabotage to the plane.
