Air Force jets may indeed be the sound of freedom, but intrusive searches and other policies at airports which violate the First, Second, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Amendments are not merely "inconveniece" as you say but rather the wholesale destruction of liberties our soldiers in the Air Force are (were) trying to preserve.
