Do you prefer a fully-locked-down environment and living in a police nation to save you from those who abuse the freedom?
If so, move to the UK. We're doing our best, and we'll get there soon.

Or you prefer to have your bits felt by some sweaty minimum wage security guard, and the risk of having to endure a full body cavity search on the whim of "that guy looks suspicious" ?
I'm honestly not sure I prefer one over the other, I just don't see the point of spending money on expensive scanners that can't detect a bomb inserted into a body cavity. I guess if it makes people feel safer, it's not that important whether it works. As a side note, I'm actually quite surprised that bin Laden can't find anyone more technically able to try and take down a plane. Does this mean the more capable attempts tend to get caught by surveillance etc, or were Richard Reid and Pantsman the creme de la creme?
You're at Witt's End.
