My Goodness. I understand you humor with this, Mr Nethaway, but a proposal in this country to use any kind of control over an innocent human’s actions is absurd. The minute the government EVER tries to give me a tracking device, this meek Christian will probably come unglued!!!

I have been hearing more and more of proposals like this. Give devices to children so we can follow them. Give them to adults with diseases so we can find them after they wander off. Where does this infringment on human rights in the U.S. end? <><

1) What if the control switch for the stun bracelet fall into the hands of a terrorist flight attendant? 2) “At the first sign of a passenger acting suspiciously”…. What is the difference in appearance of a passenger voraciously digging in his tennis shoe to set off a plastic explosive, and a passenger voraciously digging in his shoe because he has inflamed athlete’s foot? 3) Can we propose these bracelets for editorial writer’s with unconstitutional ideas?
