12. I'm sure I'm in the minority on this ...
I'm obviously in the minority here, but when I get on a plane I'd be willing to have the government check my records and those of my co-passengers if it would help ensure I'm not on a plane that gets flown into a building. Correct me if I'm wrong, but we're talking about a database that I will never know is being searched and will only be used for things like deciding to which flights federal air marshalls will be assigned. I don't see this as being on par with doing away with habeas corpus or sending people to Guantanamo without any due process at all.
