Washington Times - Politics, Breaking News, US and World News - "Want some torture with your peanuts?" by Aviation Security Quote:
A senior government official with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has expressed great interest in a so-called safety bracelet that would serve as a stun device, similar to that of a police Taser®. According to this promotional video found at the Lamperd Less Lethal, Inc. website, the bracelet would be worn by all airline passengers (video also shown below).
This bracelet would:
• Take the place of an airline boarding pass
• Contain personal information about the traveler
• Be able to monitor the whereabouts of each passenger and his/her luggage
• Shock the wearer on command, completely immobilizing him/her for several minutes
| Oh, this is an idea whose time has come. 
This country is finally getting the government it deserves.

If this story is true, it's one of the most retarded ideas to originate from the DHS since color-coded security alerts. My favorite part is this: Quote: |
Every airline passenger would be tracked by a government-funded GPS, containing personal, private and confidential information,
| Umm where the **** would they THINK you are? Obviously you're on the ****ing plane.

A bracelet?!? That's just degrading!

If they try to put some taser bracelet on me, they're getting it shoved up their hiney and turned on.
Wait... they might like that...
