WASHINGTON -- The U.S. government has warned domestic and international airlines that some terrorists are considering surgically implanting explosives into humans to carry out attacks, The Associated Press has learned.
There is no intelligence pointing to a specific plot, but the U.S. shared its concerns last week with executives at domestic and international carriers.
People traveling to the U.S. from overseas may experience additional screening at airports because of the threat, according to the Transportation Security Administration.

"These measures are designed to be unpredictable, so passengers should not expect to see the same activity at every international airport," TSA spokesman Nick Kimball said. "Measures may include interaction with passengers, in addition to the use of other screening methods such as pat-downs and the use of enhanced tools and technologies."

In other words, they don't have any reason to believe this might actually happen but they want to prevent it anyway. Look for random full human xray machine, MRI and body cavity searches coming to an airport near you!

More and more I'm convinced that the only solution is to ban all forms of mass transit.

No plains. No trains. No buses.

See, problem solved.

THIS!

No, not "this".

The problem with "this" is that the people defining what constitutes a "terror crime" are the same assholes who want to expel first graders for having a plastic spoon at school (and then charge them as an adult for carrying a concealed weapon), or charge a 15 year old girl with 1st degree murder for having a miscarriage.

There's too much wharrgarble, and not enough (un)common sense these days.

Will I be able to sue the TSA for exposing me to harmful X-rays then? I've had so many in my life that I'm surprised I don't have 6 forms of cancer already!
Sir we have to x-ray you?
Why?
Because we think you might have implanted a bomb inside your body.
Look if you're not gonna take this seriously can we just hire cops to do this job?
