Actually... I don't even think we disagree. You just don't like what he did and can't see yourself agreeing with him doing so.
We both agree that they had the right to ask the question even if he was not legally required to answer it.
I think we both agree that he has the right to question whether there is a legal requirement for him to do so.
The difference we have begins when we express our feelings about the fact that he did so.
I'm just saying that in the world that we live in, as someone who flies frequently, I think we should all be reasonably cooperative with those who are charged with all of our safety. I don't think he was.
If you want to make sweeping constitutional realignment I applaud you, but I would pick somewhere other than security lines at an airport. At the very least, you should expect it to create some delay and further questioning. I think he did expect this and I'm not terribly impressed.
