>> These are simple yes or no questions and you need to answer then all

A rather statist thing to demand.

I’m beginning to think you’re in the minority of those that read past the title of the article.

Funny, I just reread the article to make sure I hadn't misinterpreted what I'd first read.

I don’t have a problem with voluntary blood and DNA sampling. But it should have been advertised like a car wash, well off the roadway.

From what I understood in the article, this has taken place previously. Why wasn't it addressed when it first happened?

So how did we end up with the TSA? Why is it still in existence?

We ended up with the TSA because so many Americans are willing to trade their Liberty for some (facade of) security, and so many politicians are derelict in their duty to the Constitution. There is a great deal of resistance to the TSA, though. There are constantly lawsuits being filed, and people write about it, complain to lawmakers, engage in civil disobedience, and various other forms of protest. Some people refuse to fly as long as the TSA exists as it does today.

Who is defending "these practices" as you allege?

By the way you answer other posters and twist the conversation in many of your posts, it is you who appear to defend these practices. Why do you think so many people are aggravated with you? It's debatable, in my opinion, whether you are genuine or just posting certain things to be provocative for its own sake.

Good grief. Very disappointed with those here that seem to think they’re libertarians.

Not really. It’s the double spacing in your posts that takes up so much screen space. It’s like “wow”, man.

There is a great deal of resistance to the TSA, though.

Not enough, especially in light of all the pat downs, thefts and mistreatment of travelers. Far worse than anything I've read about police roadblocks. Why haven't the courts acted to restrain the TSA?

The license identifies the owner, not the driver. License plates can be stolen or changed, can't they?

Where? This was not a police action... Where have you seen off duty police stopping citizens?

If I have to stop on a public road by people who are NOT acting as police officers but appear to be police officers it’s NOT voluntary.

Yes, the license plate identifies the owner.
