It's not like the Airlines will lose money. Hell, if anything, they'll gain money as I'm sure there would be many many people who miss their flights (costing them less, and I doubt the people would be refunded)
I think it'd be more effective to refuse to fly PERIOD. Not to mention it'd allow for all the "sheeple" to actually get where they're going for Thanksgiving.
Lol, it would be interesting if the airports found a way to make this kind of protest moot. Perhaps something like forming an extra set of lines for people that refuse to use the scanners. Get in the wrong line, then you're just sent back to the other ones...throw a fit about it and you really have no excuse since there was a line JUST FOR YOU that you ignored. no liberties being trodden on there.
