The Tin-Foil Heat Brigade 5

You can’t make this stuff up.

A man who apparently thought that a pistol wrapped in aluminum foil would be undetectable to airport X-ray machines is facing a federal criminal charge for allegedly trying to smuggle the loaded weapon on a flight from San Francisco to Europe.

    You’d be surprised at how many stupid American guys are apparently always thinking about this. Google ‘aluminum foil x ray’. It’s mind-rotting.

    I thought it only worked against alien x-rays.

    It’s another fringe WhiteManistan thing. As a white guy it’s profoundly upsetting to be genetically one with where most of the pathology resides in this country.

    Yeah, I’m beginning to wonder, quite seriously, whether white guys will be the end of civilization.  Genghis Khan, to pick a non-white guy at random, had nothing on Tony Hayward.

    It’s not a theoretical matter when the most powerful country in the world is paralyzed because it’s dominated by people who are aggressive, angry paranoids who have only one way of dealing with the rest of the world.
