Blackmoor Vituperative

Shortly after the “terrorism” inspired nonsense at airports was implemented, I figured it couldn’t last long. As stupid and irrational as people are, lots of people fly. That level of stupidity and inconvenience simply would not not persist in the face of millions of people being harassed and humiliated for absolutely no reason.

I was wrong. Seven years and counting, and this idiocy shows no signs of going away.

Does anyone believe that a nail file or a Medal Of Honor is a danger to the safety of an airplane? I will say this: if the safety of an airplane is endangered by a nail file or a bottle of marinara sauce, then there is something seriously wrong on that plane, and it doesn’t have anything to do with nail files or marinara sauce.

Even the people who created this farce know it’s a farce. So why are we still tolerating it? Is “security” the opiate of the masses?

Or have we become such base cowards that we cringe at the thought of someone carrying a nail file?

What the hell happened to us?
