Investigators successfully smuggled 75 percent of the fake bombs through checkpoints at Los Angeles International Airport in California, and 60 percent through Chicago's O'Hare International Airport in Illinois, according to a report obtained by USA Today. In tests at California's San Francisco International Airport, where a private company conducts inspections, 20 percent of the contraband made it through security.Better technology like this? I've got my own idea.
The government has conducted similar testing in the past, with similarly poor results. Repeated tests by the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General led the Government Accountability Office to conclude that better technology would improve security.
No carry-on luggage.
No purses, handbags, briefcases, backpacks, etc.
No shoes anywhere in the airport.
No hats.
No jewlery.
No shirts, blouses, or other tops.
No pants, skirts, kilts or other bottoms.
No underwear, lingerie, liquid latex, duct tape, or other 'modesty' clothing items.
That's right, if you want to fly then you better strip naked and leave everything at home. If you don't like it, take the bus or a train or maybe a cruise ship. This is America goddamnit and we don't need all you dirty stinkin' fake terrorist posers with your 'water bottles' and 'PDAs' mucking up our free and decent society. It's all banned. All of it! And don't forget to shave all your hair off, too. Or use wax or a hair depilatory or whatever. It's a free country.
Or you can start heavily investing in matter transmission research and get beamed up. Unless you have a better idea.
