1. Perhaps they'll be a missionary tool as the TSA people will be moved to ask to attend a church with such magical underwear.
2. The underwear could start a riot of laughter among workers and other passengers who have never heard of anyone wearing such garb.
3. There might have to be more strip searches of mormons because garmies have more possibilities for hiding dangerous powders and liquids.
4. The symbols might be mistaken for tiny bomb making ingredient containers.
5. Airport security people might have to undergo training like they do for minorities to mask their distast and alarm when they uncounter the funny underwear.
It would avoid the hassle of giving sensitivity training like the airport and police in California undergo to learn about Sikhs. (Sorry, I forgot how to spell the word. I'm talking about the sect that requires boys and some girls to carry daggars hidden in their clothing starting at age seven.)
I went through a scanner in Canada on Sunday. You can't tell if you wear garments. I saw my picture as I had a knee brace on and they thought it was a gun holder. I had a good pat down but not as good as coming to Canada last Thursday. I got the real pat down.
Hands all away up to my privates. They even touched my balls by mistake!!! I guess I did not stand with legs apart far enough. Had to remove belt so they could go done front of pants a little ways.
The best was feel my ass!!! That was good!!! NOT.
However I felt protected wearing my G's!!! About as protected as I was having my washings and annointings in 1967.
Maybe the Church could some pre-temple work like washings and annointings as people get the pat downs!!!!!!
Could Steve Benson do a cartoon for this new service???
Hate to break it to you, but the touching your balls was NOT a mistake. It's now part of the standard pat down.
I experienced it over the weekend - breast squeezing and a blatant finger run right down the middle of my crotch. My husband experienced similar humilation (male-oriented, of course). IMHO, it's legalized molestation.
Absolutely horrifying and had me feeling shaky for quite some time afterward. I'm not planning on flying again while this procedure is in place unless I absolutely have to.
That made me feel queasy. I am sorry that happened to you. I have serious issues with people touching me, and I think if someone touched me like that I would probably start screaming and hitting, then crying. Unbelievable.
It's gone way too far. People need to complain to their elected officials. If there is a big enough fuss, those machines and pat downs are gone, but they won't go away if people just passively do nothing about it. Things will get worse.
My mother has always said they protect the wearer from many sins, injury, and flame, so xrays should be no problem. Hasn't anyone here seen the old Superman movies?
As someone who WAS molested I don't think I could take having to 'let' someone do it again! No more planes for me! Friggin' nut job whackos! Curiously enough they SAY they are doing it for our good and protection, which is just what a lot of molesters say!!!
Wonders if the magical symbols on the Garmies will protect from Radiation. If so, Mormons can sell this as radiation suits in Nuke plants. They'll make a fortune in China. counted at least 12 nuke plants on the way out here to Cangzhou from Shanghai.
i heard they are even patting down little children.... this is WAY too much to handle... i also heard there are going to be protests in the airport due to the intrusiveness of the pat downs... and go thru the machine? well how many rads might you get? i also heard that frequent flyers may be getting way more doses of rads than they should.... course the Gov. will say that no worries... but i aint so sure!!
