Here’s a solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners at the airports: All we need to do is develop a booth that you can step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have hidden on or in your body. The explosion would be contained within the sealed booth. This would be a win-win for everyone. There would be none of this concern about racial profiling and the device would eliminate long and expensive trials. This is so simple that it’s brilliant. 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…”
Of course, there might be some delays for clean up : )

As politically incorrect as it is, if we just profiled people most of this would go away. Feeling up a white 85 year old grandmother for a bomb is really the result of not wanting to offend someone. Call it what it is, please, someone?
