I think the whole post 9-11 policy is over-reaction.
Oh... like the shoe-bomber-take-my-shoes-off bs. I hate that. Who

we gave up too much. In that sense, he accomplished quite a bit.
The terrorists have won in my opinion. As a nation, we are certainly
terrorized enough to be giving up our freedom.
Nah. They might have "won" a battle, but the war over our constitution
has
been going on for 200 years. A bunch of people living in caves aren't
powerful enough to win.
Tell me again while you are submitting to an electronic strip search
at the airport or when you have to jump through the hoops to renew
your driver's license after your state passes "real ID"
Women take a worse beating than men in that, like having to produce
certified copies of all of their marriage licenses and divorce
decrees.
All I seem to need is my DD214.
Electronic strip search? You mean a metal detector or some screening where
my identity remains hidden unless something is discovered? I have no
problem
with that. Not sure what country you're talking about, but I've never
heard
of anyone having to produce divorce papers to renew a license.
I mean the full body x-ray scanner.
As for D/L

Click YES on Have you ever changed your name
No problem with the scanner.
I still think it's reasonable (thanks for the link) to have to prove who you
are to renew your license. It's not much of a burden. I'd imagine that if
you're divorced or married and you changed your name, you'd have those
documents. Why is this a big deal? Does this somehow prove terrorists won?
