   I remember once when I was in airport security and the guy asked if he   
   could look through my things. I told him, "oh, so I have a choice? If I   
   have a free choice, of course the answer is no".   
      
   The guy actually smiled, I saw he got it, apologized and said he had to do   
   it anyway since it was his job. Since I was in a good mood, I refrained   
   from saying that the Nazi prison guards were also just doing their jobs.
