Gimme a freaking break. Are you serious? Molested and violated? Puh-lease.tk421;851738 wrote:That's the same stupid reasoning that has millions of travelers being molested and violated at airports across the country 10 years after 9/11. The fear mentality that the government and news media create in this country is outrageous.

If you want every American to be treated like prisoners just traveling by plane across the country, then go for it. Myself, I still believe in personal freedoms and the right to not be searched without probable cause. I laugh at the fact that you are supposedly so educated, yet are perfectly willing to let the government do whatever they want all in the name of "safety". It's laughable if it weren't so scary.

You're the one that has a problem with "lockdowns" and airport security "patdowns"! I have no problem whatsoever with being frisked because I know that it's going to bring safety. I don't want some gun-hugging-hippy like you bringing your pistol on, just to end up shooting yourself in the foot because you're probably stupid enough too, and then costing me my flight as now the pilot has to land the plane in an emergency.
Rules and safety processes are in place for a reason. Not to molest people, conspiracy-theorist.
This is 2011... Not 1960 anymore pal. Things change.

friendfromlowry;851784 wrote:I'll disagree with this because what's truly frightening is that for the most part, any wacko can obtain a gun. I don't have a problem with ROTC students having a gun, but it's bad when these depressed, manic-depressive, pissed off at the world losers get their hands on one. Wasn't that the case back in 2007 - if a background check was performed on the guy, they would have discovered he had a history of depression and probably would have been denied a gun? I remember reading at the time that states are suppose to do background checks, but over half don't, and this guy managed to slip through the cracks.
