Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety



I've become increasingly disturbed by the enhanced security protocols instituted in our country.


As part of a campaign to rethink this, Reddit has started Operation Grab Ass, working through the more politely named Fly With Dignity. One of the easiest, and most effective things we can do is write our Representatives. If you share these concerns, you can find your Rep & write them through their Congressional site!

Here's my missive:

Dear Mr. Camp,

I'm writing to you today because of my concern about the new airport security screening protocols put in place by the TSA.

In order to travel, many of us are having to choose between posing for nude/semi-nude pictures or a groping. This isn't a choice that citizens of a free nation should have to make; it's invasive and compromises our personal freedoms to an intolerable degree.

I would like to see changes made to these security protocols and ask that you work toward this goal.

We all want to travel safely, but let's do so in a way that doesn't violate our personal dignity.

Thank you for your time,
Allison
