Yeah, because that's exactly the only way for terrorists to attack. There should be a line drawn into what should be humanly acceptable to do and what isn't and this crosses that line way too much.

To defeat the terrorists you shouldn't become them because it's in that exact moment that they have won. By doing these things you're just playing exactly into what they want. You want to defeat the terrorists? Good, bolster your information networks, your surveillance networks and work inside their own cells more extensively. Don't go around pretending that every citizen in your own country is exactly the same as the ones that want to attack you. 

But hey, again, fuck common sense right? 

Hey I never wanted TSA in the first place. But what's done is done, and this is how it needs to happen. I disagree myself, but this is our times now. Nothing can change it now. The knee-jerk reaction America had toward 9/11 has put us here and we've spent trillions doing this. If we don't do it right, and something gets through, we've basically wasted trillions, right?

Going by the "what's done is done" system is basically letting yourself go down in apathy. So you basically say that whatever system that any government puts in place just for the sake of some "cause" must stay in place just because they've already wasted money in it? 

Oh well, I'd best leave it at that, because I just can't state how heavily I disagree with that state of mind.
