Man. It’s a sad day when, in the name of National Security, we must be subjected to such violations of our most intimate selves. It’s bad enough that I know; but does the rest of the world need to know I’m not hung like a rhino?
Well, I can’t make out that much detail on the subject in the photo. He looks almost as “featureless” as a Ken doll. Nice build, though.
Would this device detect plastic weapons?
It’s called backscatter x-ray. Here are some images of it in use:
And yes, it can detect practically anything.
I have seen images from these machines that were not as featurless as a Ken doll. Indeed, you could tell cut or uncut.
If they are safe and if they were operated by trained professional who would behave in a professional manner, and this meant I did not have to take off my shoes, I would not be bothered, but I see in the news that many of the screeners do not behave in a professional manner and cannot be trusted to respect the dignity of those being screened, so I would boject.
If they were being operated by trained professionals in the manner listed in the CNN article, I would have little objection. But they won’t be. They’ll be operated by TSA dorks with minimal training and no professional ethics. Thank you, no. I’ll drive myself.
Finally, all those years of learning how to write on my ass are going to pay off. What do you mean I have “Fuck You Pigs” written on my buttocks? I have no idea what you’re talking about…
Nuts, I’ve been searching eBay, but I can’t seem to find one. When does it go on sale again?
Does this mean X-Ray glasses are in the near future? 
Seriously, though, I would probably also object, on the same grounds as lee and silenius.
“Fine, fine, mouse, fine, syringe, fine, fine, nose, fine…”
Well, one thing I know for certain now, is that If I’m gonna get scoped out by some chick with x-ray vision I should turn around, because from the front the dude looks like Captain Weak-ass-tapeworm victim, but from behind could pass for Superman.
