As much as I detest it, I'll still go through the airport screening process so I can visit my mother, as I did recently. And while my wife and I chose to vacation by car this year (partly for financial reasons), we can't bring ourselves to forever write off trips to places we must fly to.<br /><br />That doesn't stop me from protesting this oppressive security racket — but unfortunately the only way I know how is to blog about it. Any actual resistance to the security goons would probably only get me fined thousands of dollars, jail time, maybe even confiscation of my meager property. <br /><br />It's incredible that we have come to this.Rick Darbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02371910140619422820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16646992.post-37442452569749336792010-12-17T09:39:51.190-10:002010-12-17T09:39:51.190-10:00As an aside, I must mention that most of the Metro...As an aside, I must mention that most of the Metro workers are black, with a lukewarm IQ at best, and most of the suburban commuters whose bags they'll be searching are white.<br /><br />Let me also predict that, despite a bit of grumbling, the sheeple will passively accept yet another government intrusion in the name of "security." If I ever visit the D.C. area again, it will be for my mother's funeral. I've told her I will not fly with the TSA in charge, and I certainly will not take the Metro, so they'd better delay any funeral service 3-5 days so I can drive in (unless, of course, by then they also have an armed perimeter guard around the city, in which case I will be staying home - I can pray for her soul just as well from home).Sheilanoreply@blogger.com
