If they started doing this, I would never fly on an airplane ever again.

There is no hope - all is lost

[sandorski]

Obama needs to disband DHS.

Outside the fact that this won't happen, ever, the airlines should worry about increasing quality before doing shit like this.

Time to reinvest in rail.

[RUEZ]

I have one of these at home, it's not so bad.

$1:

Besides activation using the grid screen, the steward / stewardess will have a laser activator that can activate any bracelet as needed by simply pointing the laser at the bracelet - that laser dot only needs to be within 10 inches of the bracelet to activate it.

So basically they could disable me and those sitting on either side of me.

Q: What's more fun than lasers at a movie theater? Hint: The movie will star Samuel L. Jackson.

Maybe the ability to fill the plane with knockout gas would be better. Or each chair could be retrofitted into an electric chair.

Totally ridiculous!

The bracelets remain inactive until a hijacking situation has been identified.

More security measures are required for what, exactly? The dozens of hijackings that occur daily? Why not just give crew stun guns instead of treating people like animals?

$1:

We believe that all passengers will welcome deliverance from a hijacking,

fuck this guy.

That sounds fantastik....

Computer or interface malfunction and everyone gets a good dose of electrocution... and comes a lawsuit and a big amount of money at the end
