And, I do respect old Ben Franklin. He was fortunate to live in a time where black was black, and white was white. Open up your eyes!!! The rules have changed. There are none so blind as those who will not see! You most likely object to the fact that you only have a 25% chance of sneaking your concealed weapon onto an airplane because of the new security measures they've enacted since 9-11. I love America, not because she takes away my freedoms, but because she gives me the freedom to feel safe. When individuals out there try to take away my safety, I love America because she acts to stop their actions. Open your eyes! We will never have the freedoms we had only one year ago. Would you like to have it be the way it was on 9-11....Over...and Over....and Over?
