Why have they been locked up for the last twenty years without rights? We found them with sunblock.

1. I'm going to a protest tomorrow wearing terrorist sunblock
I might even have some sunblock in my car.

2. Yes. If they are arguing that common liquids
that are commercially available in every supermarket and drug store could are proof of terrorist intent then they are claiming the power to lock up anyone.

6. No, because I'm not an alarmist --
sky is falling idiot like the neo-cons seem to be recently.
If they want to lock me up, I'm sure they would be able to find better reasons than my possession of sunblock.

Despite cursory appearances, the entire legal system has not gone insane & I doubt it will in the near future either.

7. Here is a good reason - since we are all just walking bags o' water
Up to 60 percent of the human body is water, the brain is composed of 70 percent water, and the lungs are nearly 90 percent water. About 83 percent of our blood is water, which helps digest our food, transport waste, and control body temperature. Each day humans must replace 2.4 litres of water, some through drinking and the rest taken by the body from the foods eaten.

9. No, but it does now after reading this post. I guess now we have to
overanalyze not just what we bring on board, but how *combinations* of items we bring on board might be construed.
