18. TSA is not responsible if an airplane
upon which those people who do decide to fly, crashes onto a highway on top of a bunch of people who did not want to fly.

People make their choices and live with the consequences.

TSA will no be responsible if some airline goes bankrupt because people do not decide to fly.

People should be responsible for individual choices.

The problem is not about who is responsible for highway deaths, but whether we as a nation will stand up for our rights to be free of unnecessary search and seizure. And this is not just the TSA, but a government that is so frightened of frightened Americans who will blame them WHEN some terrorist gets through.

If they want to search me, they can show probable cause or prove that not searching people for the last 9 years has caused sufficient loss of life. An underwear bomber and a shoe bomber are not sufficient cause to ignore the Constitution.
