We're the Only Ones Firing YOU Up Enough

An Arapahoe County Courthouse security officer accidentally fired his handgun, injuring a colleague Wednesday morning after he ran the weapon through an X-ray machine, authorities said. [More]
See, he's there to make sure you and I don't have guns, because he's the "Only One" qualified to have them there.

Or something.

I read that somewhere female lawyers are required to take off their bras to visit clients in jail because the underwire in the bras sets off the metal detectors.

On the OTHER end of the scale, this clown wants to see if a whole pistol shows up on an X-ray? He sounds every bit as qualified as those outside the gun culture who cock their revolver just like on TV when they hear a noise at night, then have to call the police and ask how to let the hammer down again safely.

"Olympic Security has verified that this is not an approved machine calibration technique," Robinson said.

yeah but so what? maybe it's better than all the "approved" techniques.

even somebody dumb as rocks, with fat, buttery fingers, might have enough free time to come up with a better one. mmm delicious popcorn

Defender, I once had a job which required me to go to the county courthouse (and through the metal detector) regularly. I would up shit-canning my underwire bras.
