NO FURTHER NEED FOR FULL-BODY SCANNERS OR PAT-DOWNS

This solution was sent to me from England by Tom Crockford. Actually it’s an oldie, but it's worth mentioning now in view of the uproar over the latest airport security measures.
 
PERFECT AIRPORT SECURITY SOLUTION
 
Here is the solution to all the controversy over full-body scanners and pat-downs at the airports:
 
Airports will have a number of explosive-proof booths at the security checkpoints. After passing through the metal detector, each passengers will have to step into one of the booths before boarding their flight.
 
The booths will not x-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your body.
 
It would be a win-win situation for everyone. There would be none of this crap about racial profiling and this method would eliminate a long and expensive court trial. Justice would be swift, certain and final.
 
This is so simple that it’s brilliant. Can’t you just see it? You’re in the airport terminal waiting in line and you suddenly hear a muffled explosion.
 
Shortly thereafter an announcement comes over the PA system: "Attention stand-by passengers. We now have one seat available on flight number 4665.....Paging maintenance. Shop Vac needed in booth number 4."
 
Sure sounds like a winning solution for all airline passengers.
