Airport Security

The Airport Security Solution :

Here's the solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports:
Have a booth you step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on you.

It's a win-win for everyone, and there would be none of this crap about racial profiling. It eliminates a long and expensive trial. Justice will be swift. Case closed! This is so simple it's brilliant.

I can see it now:

You're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion, followed by an announcement over the PA system, "Attention standby passengers. We now have a seat available on flight number ...."

Works for me!

Good idea. Now if you can invent the technology to do that, you'll be 0.000012% there. The other 99.999988% comes with trying to pound some common sense into TSA and the lawmakers.

Wouldn't work. Someone would call it profiling or discrimination or something since it's directly targeted at terrorists!

TSA would probably slip a bomb into grandma's purse just so they can say they don't discriminate.

My apologies to TAM.

I got this in an email from a friend in an Columbus the other day. I didn't realize that TAM had posted it almost a year ago. It's a small world; a micro-cosim if you include the internet.
