If you actually wore one of those for the body scan, you get pulled for a hand
screen anyway, the presumption being you would not be hiding if you had nothing
to hide.

That said, if they had one with a raised middle finger, I would do it just for
effect.

You know, I understand the irritation over all this, I really do, but
I think it's important to measure our sense of indignance. Nobody's
barging into our homes and demanding stripteases from our children.
Nobody's forcing any of us to fly anywhere. We have no inherent rights
regarding our ability to board an airplane, uh, unmolested (ahem).

My girlfriend's 83 year old grandparents drove roundtrip from Florida
to Nebraska three times this year because they refuse to put up with
the hassle at airports. It's enough of an issue for them that they'd
rather spend 22 hours in the car, and so they do.

My point is, it's one more indignity to endure at the airport, but
it's hardly the end of western culture.

Anyway, there's always this: http://www.rockyflatsgear.com/
