Traveling by air this holiday season? If I had to fly, I would wear
sign around my neck. "I Object" as I went through the scanner or have to receive one of the ghastly body searches.

Everyone I know thinks this is intrusive but you either go through it or stay at home. If enough people wore simple signs, maybe the --media-- would cover it.

Hope lots of Faux folks have to fly to Gramma's house.

4. A little frosting in those hard to reach areas might be an amusing touch :P
But in seriousness I think this is beyond ridiculous.

8. Wonder about the legal ramifications of saying "I don't give my consent to touch my genitals"
Would that aid in a molestation lawsuit?
