OK, the possibility of artificial breasts filled with liquid explosives was bad enough, now we need to worry a "booty bombs?"
Given the TSA’s historical response to things like explosive shoes, I may never fly again.
Of course, if they got certified proctologists to do the searches, they could solve that whole "lack of prostate screening problem" and probably get BC/BS to pay for airport security at the same time.
If we’re gonna have a nanny state, then they should be the most efficient nanny state possible, right? |

Our new health care providers—TSA. Who would have thunk it? Now is a good time to invest in the companies that manufacture latex gloves. Of course with the combination airport/health security, we will still have to be there an hour or so before the flight, but now the flights will all run late. And the paperwork! OY! |

And hey, surely, there has to be some kind of Koranic law against stuffing things up your butt. I mean, come on. |

left me with wondering if this couldn’t have been some sort of test of our airport security Maybe it could have been assembled in the plane’s restroom to look like a bomb in order to hijack the plane in flight. |

Maybe he wanted people to think his butt was attractive? |

Very troubling indeed. Now, if it were somehow attached to his dangly bits in the front I could see him passing it off as a chick magnet...butt that’s not the case here. :-0 |

Maybe he wanted people to think his butt was attractive? That was HORRID, I’m sending several folks to your house to perform a cavity search on you for that one....

Hah, sounds like grounds for a warrantless search! Warrantless YES, but Groundless, NO! Sometimes, in service of the greater good, the law must be bent...and in light of that dirty crack you made, well many will understand...."...butt attractive", indeed...on the hole that was just foul.
All this remind me of Breaker Morant, "There once was a man from Australia Who painted his @rse like a dahlia The colour was fine, likewise the design... but the odour, Ugh that was a failure!" |

LOL about the magnet comments but deadly serious about the true issue here. Security at all of our transportation hubs as well as arenas and shopping malls is terrible.
We need more sensitive and faster screening capabilities, and that’s why I refer you to this company.

I cannot understand why we don’t have this technology everywhere! |

Terrorist to Osama Bin Laden:
I wish I knew how to quit you...
And on a serious note, if I were to speculate as to why it was done, I would wager the guess that it was to see if a magnet could counter act the metal detector.
A magnet to counter the field produced by the detector, to allow them to carry other items through without setting it off, perhaps? |

I have to admit that as far as a dry run/probe at our security goes, that’s -exactly- what I though when I read the article yesterday. I’m not sure -why- they thought it would work, though: As I understand it, metal detectors go off -based- on the detection of a magnetic field by a built-in magnetometer (usually after the magnetic field is induced by eddy currents from the other half of the apparatus). Five minutes on the internet (and we know plenty of terrorist groups have internet access) should’ve warned them off trying to use a magnet to fool a metal detector. |

As I understand it, Metal Detectors sense the change in magnetic field caused by a metallic object passing through an established field.
So a standing field is effected by an outside metalic body. That suggests logically that you should be able to counteract the field change my introducing another field. Unfortunately, that degree of control would have to instant and perfect...
I don’t think anyone can do it, let alone by way of a butt-plug electromagnet... |

First a man tries to sneak a bomb onto a plane using his shoe
Result: They check our shoes
A group tries to use carry-on liquids to get explosive agents past security
Result: They chuck your liqiuds, or check them very carefully...
A man tries to sneak something onto a plane by shoving it up his ass
Result: Hey wait a second... I don’t think I like where this is going... |
