I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, while I’m not exactly thrilled with having to deal with Customs lineups and random security searches whenever I fly to the U.S., I’m more than willing to take the ‘just suck it up’ approach, instead of the ‘let’s poke the bear’ approach. So in the future I probably won’t be traveling with these custom etched steel plates created by Evan Roth which are designed to show up whenever your luggage passes through an x-ray security machine. I’m sure 1 out of 1,000 Customs officers might find them amusing, but the other 999 who’ve been dealing with travelers all day probably won’t.

I think that would be a tasering.
wouldn't that also cause them to HAVE to search your bag? wouldn't the steel plate hide any other shapes behind it enough that it would probably result in a manual search, most likely including the traveler's various orifices as well!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
DAMMIT, WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT.NOW I HAVE TO DO IT.

Depends on how thick the plate is.
