Police State

Today, the subway station that I use to go to work had a police bag-check check-point. I am pissed. I didn't get stopped because I didn't have a bag today, but I worry about the day when I do get stopped. What will I say? What will I do? I do not agree with this policy. I do not choose to live in a police state, or under martial law, which is the next logical step.
Think about it: if this is what is being done absent any post-9/11 attack, and we're being hit over the head with how "inevitable" a post-9/11 attack is on NYC, then when an attack does occur the steps taken to "prevent" another attack will have to be greater than checking bags, right? And when it's realized that any suicide bomber had bombs strapped to a vest under their clothes, which couldn't possibly have been prevented by random bag searches, the next logical step would be what, metal detectors?
Not to mention the issue of profiling: ethnic, racial, religious.
This is all a RED-HERRING.

I DO NOT WAIVE THE FREEDOMS GUARANTEED ME BY THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES FOR FALSE PROMISES OF SECURITY FROM THE BLOWBACK OUR POLICIES HAVE CREATED.

I do not waive my freedoms for security, PERIOD.

I just think this is all ridiculous.
