TSA Quote of the Day

So, what happens when abusive TSA procedures cause people to decide to drive to their destinations instead of flying?  From Nate Silver:
“According to the Cornell study, roughly 130 inconvenienced travelers died every three months as a result of additional traffic fatalities brought on by substituting ground transit for air transit. That’s the equivalent of four fully-loaded Boeing 737s crashing each year.”
And I'll bet that none of those dead people were terrorists, but they would have been treated as terrorists had they flown.
