Well, Go Figure!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I wondered, a LONG time ago,  if a woman wearing one of those GEL BRAS could be seen as a potential threat..............everyone said I was NUTS!

Yikes!



Terrorists 'could use exploding breast implants to blow up jet'

 

 

 

 

 

 

--Breast-implants packed with explosives could be used by terrorists to blow up an airliner, experts have reportedly warned.

24 Mar 2010

 'Radical Islamist' plastic surgeons could be carrying out the implant operations in lawless areas of Pakistan, security sources are said to warned.

Explosives experts have reportedly said just five ounces of Pentaerythritol Tetrabitrate packed into a breast implant would be enough to blow a "considerable" hole in the side of a jumbo jet.

 [Only the CIA 'let's spike French bread with LSD' could dream of this one. And the sex offenders that the TSA *loves* to hire are going to have a field day with this one, with all the extra pat-downs and searches.]

You summed it up in a very lucid and succinct way!! You might also combine one of those upper-body supports with something like a juice box or canteen so you'd have some refreshment while waiting for airport security -- or would that also be a terrorist act? Katherine Albrecht on her program today was saying that a company called BAE or Bae Systems is working on robotic microchipped insects and spiders, which I guess could be programmed to track or even attack people? What will they think of next? Thanks for posting this.

Wouldnt it be picked up when they go through security? I havent been on a plane in years but dont they use an x ray machine of some sort. Seriously I havent been in an airport in 20 some odd years..

Neither have I yet, breast implants are not visible on a full body X-Ray, soft tissue and fluids do not appear. The detonator would!

Ah yes the old bra bomb, The d-cup detonation, The titty time bomb, Nipple napalm, The molotov mammary, and the incendiary implant!

Well, wouldn't that be a bust! C);-)

Sad. As long as we continue this war of aggression on the rest of the world and don't take the right strategic efforts to combat terrorism, everybody is in danger. Why just planes? Someone could walk into a crowded mall or stadium and set off a bomb. Unless we turn the US into some locked down state, we will always be at risk. Look at the loonies threatening to kill Congresspeople and their families right now. We have our own citizen terrorist cells in the US to worry about.

Here's the thing, who does the surgery?

What's next ? Exploding booties or thongs

I want to do the inspections.
