Taking your shoes off at airports may seem a small thing, but it is just another infringement on our human rights. How much time have you lost due to heightened security? We are not suggesting for one moment that security measures should be reduced, and certainly not at airports. Let's have a reality check; The grandmother of 84 travelling to Spain is treated the same way as the young student on his way to Pakistan. Recently we all had to throw away any fluids when boarding a plane. The reality is, that our human rights are being eroded away by terrorists. Not by what they have done, but the fear of what they may do. How can we let the majority of people through an airport without hindrance yet make sure that flying is terror free? This is just one issue when considering how our rights are being set aside. We have to watch what we say all the time for fear of upsetting muslims. One recent example; when Harry refered to "the pakis over the hill". Would there have been the same reaction had he said "the aussies over the hill", We unfortunatly have double standards. The fear of creating an us and them situation is driving it. The us and them situation has been around a long time. We (the christians) just didn't want to admit it. Them (the Muslims) have created it and want to blame us.
