Splitting Hairs
"How would you set the standard, so that the right to travel without having to waive other fundamental rights still exists in a meaningful way?"
You have the right to travel and the CHOICE of how you do that!
Are you to suggest that beacuse you father dies you should be exempt from the screening process? Or that you should be allowed to bring contra-ban onto the airline's property? You think that is your RIGHT?
The TSA does not have the power to arrest. The local police make that decision!
Why is this so hard to understand? You want to fly, follow the rules. You know your items may be subject to search why would you pack an illegal substance and then act surprised? You are getting NO symapthy with that argument!
My friend...he was driving...and he got into an accident...and they arrested him because he was drunk. Can you belive that? Alcoholics have rights too you know.
This whole argument is so dumb. If I hand you my backpack, and I know you are going to look through it, I can't scream and yell saying my Fourth Ammendment Right was violated. I freaking gave you my bag with full knowledge that you were going to search it. Where is the problem? Even Bush could figure out such a complex word problem. Why can't you? And if I have an illegal substance in that bag I would run the risk, since we do not know eachother, that you would narc me out.
