Here's a solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports.
Have a booth that you can step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your body.
It would be a win-win for everyone, and there would be none of this crap about racial profiling. This method would eliminate a long and expensive trial. Justice would be quick and swift. Case closed!
I can see it now: you're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion. Shortly thereafter an announcement comes over the PA system, "Attention standby passengers: We now have a seat available on flight number..."
Works for me!
That's a great solution. Two months ago when traveling with my son, we had such a horrible screening process. The security guy at the metal detector was a bully to everyone going through. The system in place right now makes traveling by plane so much more difficult than in the past.
To be honest, I don't think that is really all that bad of an idea, although from a technical standpoint it probably wouldn't be possible.
I have been lucky enough to not have to travel through one and will probably look towards alternate forms of transportation...
I don't have a problem with that, although the cleaning staff might.
Brilliant! It would make the screening process so much quicker. Last time I flew the security team tried to dismantle the metal heels of my motorbike boots and I was hand frisked twice. I would have been happy to step in the box and prove that I was not a security risk. (In the UK, there are plenty of people who would be happy to work as cleaners in the 'Blow up Booth'.)

Having a religion instantly puts meaning into your life, while atheism has no real meaning for life. What if god didn't exist? How would you cope? Would life be Way harder on you? But mainly my Main question is how would you cope with life and what would you think about life and death?
