Yes, the airlines say to EVERYBODY: you are a terrorist unless proven you
are not.


If you really want to drive the last nail in the coffin of commercial
airline service, force them to treat passengers otherwise.

After 9/11, like it or not, most passengers WANT the added "security"
measures that TSA have put in place. I'm sure if you put it to a vote there
would be five Air Marshals on every flight, and "ground-controlled
auto-land" capability on every plane -- stupid though that may be.

The fact that Mayor Daley is walking around a free man after bulldozing an
airport in the name of "increased security" says volumes about the current
attitude of the general public. In "normal" times (I.E.: Pre-9/11), Daley
would have been hauled away in handcuffs for destroying public property in
the middle of the night.
