I have been to the airport 3 times in the past year and two of the three times I was called of for a random search.

I doubt that the terrorist are actually ignorant enough to attempt another 911, but you can never let your guard down. I do believe that we need to increase security on our public transportation, that will be their next target. You are right that these people are greatly intellegent, that is what makes them so terrifying.
That's a good point you brought up Nebraskaboy. I was randomly searched before the flight to Italy, and on the way back. After the search, the cops asked how the vacation was, the food, and then mentioned that they do these random searches just for everyones safety. It makes me feel safer when I board onto a plane and I thank them for that.
I think it's hillarious that you feel safer and thank someone for violating your rights. That is exactly what is wrong with so many of America's youth. For the record, you are no safer then you were before...
