Is the threat of terror so politically ingrained in us now that we must resort to measures that substatially encumber world trade? I'm sorry but I guess I am just old school.

Yes, I have had freight stolen and damaged but not blown up. The only thing blown up here is the proportions to which the security measures are deemd necessary. Is man not inherently good?
