Watch out bros. Customs has a new system they call "Body Search" It's a hand held x-ray that will penetrate clothing. It will penetrate the skin approx. 2 to 3mm. eliminating the need for strip searches. It is in operation in six airports already.     | ||

Yeah, and a lot of people are complaining cause they can see the size of people's private parts! | ||

I read it too, but they said that the chances of you getting put through one of those is 1 in 2000. Basically it is to replace the strip search, which is just as bad. | ||

i'm not cool with the whole premise of using a machine to search us, but if it can see through clothing..i'll buy one!!! imagine the possiblities....you see a girl wearing a nice little outfit, she looks good..right...WRONG! Under observation with the "new xray machine" you can see she has a wart the size grapefruit on her snatch, if it weren't for the machine...you would have been in for something foul | ||
