I find it interesting that people keep saying "...the government are taking away our rights...", too late, they've taken them, and they do not give them back except at gunpoint or dangling on the end of a rope.
This furore caused by the TSA is now standard practice, there will be no change, no rescinding of the rights they've taken away.
Get used to it, this is how the NWO is being created, using non-existing threats, accusing anyone who stands for their rights of being in favour of the terrorists, and so on. There will be no flashy takeover, just the constant erosion of civil liberties, freedoms, and rights.

Like I have said before..... People act like a damned plane gets blown up every tuesday around this place. WTF? I am quite ashamed that a few nutjobs on a plane 9 years ago brought a once great country to its knees. Terror? What terror? I'm more petrified of what will come after some government plant has a bomb up his ass. This needs to stop NOW.
MOTF!

People we're going to have to go to the airlines. Obviously the government can't do anything to protect our privacy rights in this matter because if an airplane falls for some bomber next week no politician could stand the heat. We have to make this a matter of an important group losing it's money and I pick the airline industry.

At some point, we have to ask ourselves, "what is better, the terrorists taking away our freedom or the government taking away our freedom?"
