You've taken that out of context and was not meant for the American Citizen. You're quote doesn't apply to us. We've been vetted already. Pretty sad state of affairs to surrender YOUR reward for OUR RISK. Random checks prove little to nothing. Pilots are now terrorists in the eyes of the people in baby blue.
I disagree. Don’t feel I’ve taken it out of context at all. Vetted once and a lifetime pass? I don’t trust people nearly as much as you apparently. Random checks just keep people honest. If we were not subjected to them, we would probably take chances with the trust. It’s human nature. People try to get away with stuff. Do all Pilots drive the speed limit when driving the road? Nope. But we are so law abiding right? Nope. The TSA keeps us in check for a reason. Your argument is futile.
