I would rather someone violate my rights than to get blown to pieces.
How many planes have blown up in the US from a terrorist attack? Ever?
How many people have died traveling by air ever?
More people die traveling by car in one single year, than have died by traveling by plane in the entire history of air travel. Period.
If you would give up your freedoms to prevent such a minor chance of dying by flying... what wouldn't you give up to prevent the very real chance of dying in a car?
I've got more important things to worry about than a few millirems of radiation at an airport.
Let me break this down for you...
Your position is, people having their rights violated isn't worth your time, or it's justifiable to violate people's rights in this situation.
If you allow the violation of your rights for ANY REASON, then you no longer have them. All it takes for them to violate your rights, is for them to "justify" it. If you allow them to violate the rights of American citizens, then no American Citizen has that right anymore. Period.
You can't say we HAVE those rights unless there is justification for us not to. You HAVE that right, or you don't.
In your opinion, having that right isn't worth your time. It isn't worth complaining about. It isn't worth defending. Who cares if they take your rights away.
Let me explain something to you about rights. They didn't just happen. They weren't always guaranteed. They were fought for. Millions of lives were given freely so that you could have those rights. Once you give them up. Once they are gone. They will never EVER come back, without the loss of millions of lives.
Do you know what the word infringe means? It means to chip away at. To eat away a little at a time. Our rights shall not be infringed. The founding fathers weren't worried about them being taken away in one fell swoop. They worried about them being chipped away at, until they were rights in name only, and worthless to the citizens of this nation.
