It's time that government stops taking actions that provide no 

increased safety, protection or otherwise, to anyone within the 

public, solely for the purpose of providing members of the public, 

and, critics, a false sense of security. The reactive nature we are 

so accustomed to seeing, is that actions are taken, without any real 

thought, to simply allay false fears. This is ludicrous. When 

ridiculous actions are taken, that provide nothing, then those 

actions then become the norm, and are what is required to be taken in 

the future.



One only needs to fly frequently, to see the nonsense that frequent 

travellers must endure, with little evidence that we are better 

protected today than we were prior to 9/11. And today I see that 

there will be a bill introduced to put off baggage checks 

indefinitely. Now THAT would provide REAL protection to us flyers.
