Serious question - how does this "limit the lawful air travel of citizens of the United States"?


You have to get this special license with all the right documentation before you can board a plane in the United States.

And another serious question - what is "lawful air travel"?


Air travel conducted by innocent citizens, who have not been convicted in a court of law and have no duly imposed restrictions on their movements placed upon them, and who are presumed to have no unlawful intent when boarding a plane.

Just playing devil's advocate - you have to have a license to drive a car or buy a gun, and many want you to need an ID to vote...why wouldn't we expect that for air travel? I have to show an ID to get on a plane now, what's the problem with the new requirements?

I fit all of those categories today and have to show my ID to get on a plane. What's onerous about this?

I'm really legitimately asking - I don't know enough about the topic other than the date keeps getting pushed back.
