John Gilmore: 'I'm Right, And You Know It!'
Topic: Society 1:02 am EDT, Oct 26, 2004

It's clear that freedom of speech also includes freedom to listen.

John Gilmore drops his rhetorical sledgehammer on TSA's pinhead, drawing on a century of Supreme jurisprudence to demonstrate the error of their ways.

He is, of course, absolutely right on point, but that does not excuse his extreme Constitutional fixation. John seems determined to prove the Wrongness of TSA's plan, and in the process totally misses (or ignores) the folly of it.

Russ Nelson promptly chimes in, echoing the nugget of wisdom proffered by a short pull on the cord of his Bruce Schneier talking plush doll. "Hey, guys -- it won't even work!" (We would have also accepted: "Security is a Process!")

The question we should ask ourselves is, What should we do?
