    I have been, Dozer....ice water, Slim Fast and red wine vinegar. lol


    There's not a stone in my heart I've left unturned
    Not a piece of my soul that I ain't searched
    The only answer I found for all this hurt
    Is there ain't not answer here on earth

    OP- just drive everywhere. Enough whining.
    Piss off.

    How about making realistic security decisions instead of reactionary policies and unnecessary bannings? This ban does not make us one bit safer.

    Neither do the shoe searches because once they banned matches and lighters, shoe bombs aren't a threat anymore.

    You think it's whining that the terrorists are changing the way we do things? That the government is making assinine security policies that don't make us safer?

    And BTW, we've already been over this- flying isn't always a choice. And even when it is, why should I put up with this BS because of stupid terrorists and even more stupid government policies. It's unreasonable, unnecessary and doesn't make us any safer. The only way to make us truly safe is to just ban air travel altogether.

    does it matter if there's a reason? The terrorists are still telling us what to do and the government is still making security policies that are reactionary and don't make us safer.

    Why don't they just strip search us then make us check our clothes and board the plane naked? Will you be saying "get over it" when it comes to that?

    Because, Op, if you want to fly, YOU HAVE NO CHOICE but to abide by the stupid government policies. It's as simple as that.

    BTW, you can still bring matches aboard a plane.

    So you would rather we don't do anything because it inconveniences you, right? So what if terrorists blow up a few planes, Op isn't inconvenienced and that is what counts.

    I would rather the government comes up with policies that actually PROTECT us. IF this stuff is so dangerous:

    a) why hasn't it been banned before
    b) why hasn't it EVER lead to one death or injury, ANWHERE, EVER? Terrorism and liquid explosives weren't invented yesterday.


    You think it's about convenience- I think it's about reasonable responses to risks and threats.

    Actually, there were about three pages dedicated to hair products and physical threats.

    So that makes it right? If you were a Jew in Nazi Germany YOU HAD NO CHOICE but to go into a concentration camp.

    There are ways to make the government change policies. It's amazing how complacent our society has gotten over these overbearing policies.

    And not having a choice doesn't make it any less frustrating and irresponsible.

    You think it's about convenience- I think it's about reasonable responses to risks and threats.
    I think it's a reasonable responce when they had proof that 10 planes were going to be attacked in a few days.

    So by your logic, we only institute security measures in responce to actions already taken by terrorists.
