This is a scan image, I don't find it very NSFW, but that's probably debatable.

Yeah, I saw this on the news a couple of days ago. You can choose a person to LOLTOUCH you, or take a lolscanner.

Am I doin tis rite?

A scan image of what, exactly? Like, taken by the kind of scanner you'd go through at an airport or something?

Airports, by the looks of it. Feel free to correct me.

Yes. Personally, I don't like how it looks. Seems like an over-exaggeration for protection if anything.

>go to airport
>travel to family home for thanksgiving
>have to go through this scanner which produces the above image to even get to your plane
>???
>terrorists profit.

in a nutshell.

Luckily, when I traveled overseas during this Summer, I never came across scanners that were this advanced. Only metal-detectors and what-not, though it did beep a lot because most of the stuff I wear had some form of metal attaching (belt, shoes [steel toe], bracelet, necklace). Luckily, I didn't wear pants that had metal hanging all over, ugh.

Oh wow, then if this is used by airports that's overkill. Might as well put security cameras in bathrooms, right? It's for our safety.

By the way, don't see how this will prevent people from smuggling stuff in their rectum (which I assume most people who really want to smuggle without being detected would do), it just gives you a surface image. Seems more like material for those security people to have a more fun job.

Nothing wrong with that, man.

I don't leave the country anyway, so don't care too much, but I wouldn't want someone groping or stealing alien-looking nudes of me.

Inb4 they discover this causes cancer like everything else does and a shitstorm comes up.

Wat. There's more ways to find nudity and porn. Let alone .. using those as a means of seeing nudes. That's like talking about preteens looking at Anatomy books to get turned-on.

The government ought to pretend to install these. If these were truly installed, terrorists would never enter the country by plane.

A terrorist's interest is not to enter countries by planes, their interest is to cause terror. They can do so in many ways other than boarding planes.

Not the point. I don't care if my blue-glow body is arousing or not. I don't want those guards seeing it, and I don't want the only other option I have to be having them grope me. Both are sexual harassment made legal, because I have no choice but to consent to one or the other, or not get on my plane at all.

Ever since 9-11 this country's gotten it's head jammed so far up its rectum over "security" that it's hard not to say the terrorists have succeeded.

P&T are such trolls.

Trillion dollars spent on the "War on Terrorism". They won 9 years ago.

Operation Hemorrhage. Saw this on the news this morning. I laughed.

1. Ask for the pat down instead.
2. Explain that you believe the person issuing the pat down is sexually attracted to you. They will bring someone else to do it.
3. Repeat step 2 like 15 times before letting them.
4. ???
5. Profit.

Wear kilt without underwear. Ask for pat down.

What we need is a flight called "Amendment 2 Airlines". A plane where everybody's packin' heat. Let's see terrorists try anything funny on that flight.
