airport security

#1 Post by Aladinsaneuk » Sun Oct 10, 2010 9:55 pm

Here's a simple solution to the controversy over full-body scanners at airports.

Develop an enclosed booth that passengers step into but , instead of X-raying them, when the door closes, it will detonate any explosive device they have hidden on or in their body.

. The explosion will be contained within the sealed booth. This would be a win-win for everyone!
. There would be no more concern about racial profiling.

. The booth would eliminate long, expensive trials.
. You're in the airport 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..."

What's not to like?

Brilliant...


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Last I heard about the full body scanners was they weren't able to use them due to some Euro law bollocks. Another pot of money wasted on those then.. :smt012
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

Having recently gone through far too much airport security bullsh*t, I think the idea is brilliant.

Can't see it catching on, though... :smt009
It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.
