You know what, if those 3,000 lives had been lost in North Dakota or Mississippi, I bet most people would have forgotten about it by now. But just because it was big bad NYC and the Pentagon, it was a big blow to our ego. Yeah that must sound cruel and callous, but I call it how I see it.
And yes I think airport security is way overkill, compared to what they're doing to protect our borders and our shipping ports (which is practically NOTHING). If anyone is going to bring over a dirty bomb or something, it's NOT going to be on an airline.
