I think people are really blowing this thing out of proportion. There really aren't that many people affected by the ban, and arguably more are inconvenienced by the protests.

Also, it seems a little ridiculous to act like nobody saw this coming. The guy has been promising to do this exact thing for months. If I was flying to a foreign country, it seems logical to do a little research on the political environment there, and evaluate the wisdom of visiting. Anyway, I wasn't surprised by this.

I'm not saying I support it: I don't. I think we should get rid of the TSA altogether. I think "Radical Islamic Terrorism" is a Boogeyman used by those in political power to convince the masses to voluntarily give up their rights. Sure there are terrorists in the world, but realistically I have a much better chance of dying by shark attack than terrorists.

Everyone just needs to calm down. All this over-reacting is going to encourage martial law.
