While I understand what you are saying let's just get a couple of things straight.
#1 these are different times.
#2 when in Rome do as the Romans do...in other words obey the law of the land.
I've said it before on this board regarding flying in America from state to state and now I'll just apply that to the world.
If you want safety well here it is. In America we have the right to travel from state to state, town to town freely...however we do not have the right to do it as quickly as we would wish...and this applies to intercontinental travel as well.
Sure it's a hassle. But the simple fact is when travelling in country we are doing so on a federally regulated plane, that is being piloted by a federally regulated pilot in federally regulated air space. So now add the extra hassle and the extra laws when travelling from one country to another.
I hate to take a line from a silly movie...but it reminds me of when Austin Powers is telling Dr. Evil that this is a groovy time where we have both freedom and RESPONSIBILITY.
This is just another part of that responsibility.
