Fit to fly? Balance Board tapped to detect shifty characters at airports - Polidicks

♫I've got magnets in my shoes♫

Scared people are the terrorists! They instill their terror into other people! We must do one thing! We must go to their homes, kill them, destroy their homes, and then place very large drills generally used to drill for oil, to look for weapons of mass destruction!

An odd idea, I suppose it could work as a rough estimate. I'm sure it's prone to a lot of false positives though, so they'd better have some other way of telling 'terrorists' and legit flight passengers apart afterwards without resorting to checking up their ass for a balloon full of cocaine or something aswell.

"you're moving, you're a terrorist!"

Well, I'm a dead man. See you on the other side folks cause apparently I'm a terrorist.

I don't think monitoring someone's movements on a small scale will help us catch terrorists. What a stupid idea.

I should buy a plane ticket to someplace. And as I'm getting searched by security, I'll say "I'm a terrorist, you caught me. Arrest me." And hold my arms out to be cuffed.

[QUOTE=Van-man;17777296]Oh boy, I'm screwed. I've always been paranoid and nervous around security personnel/police/military people for no apparent reason.[/QUOTE] The same with me, I don't want to end up being the guy who gets tackled and tazed because the metal detector found out I had a paper-clip in my pocket.

I bet someone in homeland security brought a Wii to work, got caught, and when asked about it said he was using it to catch terrorists

Not sure if this would work with me. I am always fucking tired when I fly because it is always early in the morning, so I am constantly ready to pass out, and have to shift my feet to remain standing.

[QUOTE=markg06;17776769]As long as they don't look arab they'll be fine, as I recall airport security people generally being stereotypical.[/QUOTE] It's not fun being given special attention just because my dad looks somewhat like what a typical American would think all terrorists look like. I was frankly appalled at how the Black and Hispanic immigration officers, or whatever you call them there, could be so prejudice. I did not fancy having my passport rather rudely plopped onto the counter and neither did I enjoy being asked weird questions about my country's landmarks. My entire family had "SSSS", which stands for Selected for Secondary Security Screening, printed on our boarding passes. Which explains why I was frisked and had all my belongings swabbed with paper that was then put into some analysis machine. Fucking airport security.
