    Freemen(as in mankind, i hate politcal correctness) should be able to make their own choices and live with the consequences, our governments are not there to protect us from ourselves
    As soon as you have a lot of people living in 1 location, that just doesn't work anymore. I can completely follow your reasoning if the only person at risk is you.
    As soon as you put other people at risk for no reason at all, that is no longer true.

    To take drunk driving: allowing people to drive drunk in a crowded street is similar to putting 1 bullet in a revolver, spinning the cilinder, and shooting at a pedestrian eveyr mile or so. Your argument is basically that it is ok to do so as long as the gun doesn't fire. And you continue the argument that if the gun should fire, there are laws to deal with that.

    However, I think the majority of the people just don't want to participate in this game of russian roulette. I otoh say that the person playing russian roulette with passers by should be taken off the streets, even though he has managed (through dumb luck) not to shoot anyone so far.

    By the same token, I think that when you approach a busy airport it is the wrong time to find out if you are aware of the relevant protocols and procedures.
