Underwear Invention Protects Privacy At Airport
Thanks to Jeff Buske you don't have to be embarrassed while going through the full body scanners at the airport. Buske has invented radiation shielding underwear for the shy traveler. From the article: "Jeff Buske says his invention uses a powdered metal that protects people's privacy when undergoing medical or security screenings. Buske of Las Vegas, Nev.-Rocky Flats Gear says the underwear's inserts are thin and conform to the body's contours, making it difficult to hide anything beneath them. The mix of tungsten and other metals do not set off metal detectors."
If you objected to this "in the strongest terms possible", you wouldn't make any statements that could be taken as supporting it, now would you? Or do you think that your rights are important, but less important than "someone is wrong on the internet"? Your priorities seem off, to me.
Socialism: a lie told by totalitarians and believed by fools.
You know what pisses me off the most at airports? Not hightened security, but the lack of electric outlets and free (or cheap) wifi. That aggravates me to no end.
Hey, at over a million bucks a line plus 4 employees due to federal security mandates, there's no money left for the airport authorities to put in public electrical outlets or offer free WiFi. If you want entertainment, sit somewhere you can watch the theater your billions of dollars of tax and airline dollars are paying for - security theater.

Yeah, right, they get *GROPED*. What an exaggeration. It's just a damn inspection. If you're having those kind of fantasies perhaps you're too repressed or watch too much porn (or both).
If they don't want to get touched, then they shouldn't object to the scans.
