Sure there's another way. It's called innocent until proven guilty. Right now, the US is treating everyone like as a suspect, which is a shitty way to live, if you ask me. I'd prefer to take my chances of the bus or plane getting blown up, then live in a world like that.

No, that's not really how it works. What happens is, some asshole stabs someone on a Greyhound bus, then the family members scream & holler to the media. In response, politicians jump on board to pass new legislation to make you "more secure", and score some brownie points for the next election.
Continue that cycle for a few decades, and you end up with what we have now. In the US, cops will show up at your door because you bought too much cough syrup, and they'll suspect you of having a drug lab.

Up to you. Most of us know the threat isn't anywhere near as large or real as the government makes it out to be.
