A new x-ray machine has debuted in Phoenix’s airport, and it’s for your package, not for your luggage. Anyone who sets off a metal detector will have a choice between getting a pat-down, or getting into an x-ray machine that will allow the screener to see you completely naked.

There’s so much wrong with this, I don’t even know where to start. I’m sure the drink sales at airports have gone way up since they started the minimal liquid rules, and now they want to see you naked before you can board the plane. Eventually, you’re just gonna have to show up to the airport completely naked with no luggage, and they’ll start selling clothes on the plane at ridiculous prices. It’s also pretty clear that anyone who applies for an airport security job from now on is going to be a pervert who wants to see you naked, and I really don’t think these are the kinds of people who can be trusted with homeland security.
