If you cannot carry on daily affairs without being searched or stopped by a cop then this country is in a sad state. The house of reps just ****ted all over America today with the "patriot" act. Hopefully it doesn't pass the senate but no one seems to care.

This is total BS.

1. Let your representatives know that you believe that freedom is more important than bogus safety measures
2. Let people know that you do not agree with what is happening in airports and in NY. Wearing a T-shirt with a statement is an excellent way to do this.
3. Refuse to be searched. I would attempt other transportation if necessary.

My dad missed his flight yesterday because of a random search. Totally screwed the whole day up and completely pointless.
