It's "we the people" who told you you can't get on an airplane without being searched. We decided, as a society, to elect representatives who would act to help prevent airline hijackings. The people who brought this to you was all of us, your friends and neighbors. No totalitarian imposition of airport searches was necessary - we asked for this.

Just thinking of a thread a while back, wherein you made what was essentially a libertarian argument for several rounds, and then closed with "BTW, I'm not a libertarian". Quack, quack ;)
