I don't have a problem with an ADIZ. The problem I have is that
airliners which can carry more explosives than a Ryder truck are
allowed to fly in it, but GA planes are not.


Commercial air carriers have tightened their security to the point
where (I suspect) it would be impossible for a 9/11-style attack to
succeed again using commercial airliners as weapons.

Not to mention the fact that the passengers would immediately and
violently resist, as opposed to the pre-9/11 hands-in-your-lap

approach
to a hijacking.

All they have to do is get a pilot trained and working for an airliner!
Sounds silly but they are just that patient! As for as the
passengers, they won't know a thing till they see the Washington
monument go by the wing, then it will be too late!
