When Everybody is Naked, Only the Terrorists Will Wear Clothes
Posted September 19, 2007 | 05:40 PM (EST)

If we were really serious about fighting terrorism in this country, everybody in a public space would be naked. Then terrorists could not conceal bombs under their clothes, anybody wearing clothes would be easily spotted and arrested, and we'd all be safe.

Oh, I've heard the excuses. Cold weather, for example. But let me ask: would you rather be a little chilly or be blown up? And then there's modesty. A lot of people are not comfortable with their own bodies. Again: would you be more comfortable if your body was in a thousand pieces after an explosion? Finally, there's the whining about where to put your keys and your i.d. Here's my answer: in your hands! If you must wear clothes, you can do so in the privacy of your own home.

The government will not do this. Politicians won't touch the issue. It's going to be up to individual citizens, joining together into a vanguard to simply start removing their clothes in public. Once the example is set, others will follow, and soon all but the terrorists will be naked as jaybirds.

Some would advocate a gradual transition. Start by removing coats, jackets, shirts and sweaters, until full, frontal nudity is the norm. I don't favor this approach. Personally, I'd rather just get it over with, like jumping into a clear mountain lake, a bit uncomfortable at first, but then it's fine.

It will probably fall to readers of the Huffington Post, more intelligent and also more physically attractive than the general public, to get the ball rolling. So, what are you waiting for?

5. Sooper Idea. It would also help with weight problem in USA. I try,

I really do, but if my fat butt was hangin naked, I would get alot more motivated. Think of the healthcare benefits. Think of the reduction in greenhouse gases. This is genius. AND, no more problems with public breast feeding, or fishing in pockets for receipts. I like it.

[Flabbergasted]

20. Now you are a Genius. But how will it solve the taser problem?

10. No way in hell...

You have never lived in Watertown NY.

You do NOT want the men and women of Watertown to go naked.

[11 Bravo]

13. Hey! My wife is from Watertown. She grew up on Gotham St., not far from the yacht club.

There is nobody I would rather see naked!

[NYVet]

23. I'm sure that she is an exception to the rule...

Unless they are underage or married and imported to Watertown, I have not seen very many attractive women here

[11 Bravo]

11. I am sitting naked at my keyboard right now. (And you don't want to know what I'm typing with.)

[daninthemoon]

12. Wow, and no typo's.

[dipsydoodle]

15. Reminds me of the line

Do you use a Dictaphone............no I use my finger like everyone else.

[Atman]

14. I'm already a card-carrying member of AANR

Actually, I rarely carry my card...no place to put it.

[Jamastiene]

16. I vote yea!!!

Take it all off!!! :woohoo: <--------Streaker!!!

I hate wearing clothes. The only clothes I wear at home are some of those panties that look like boys underwear but made for women. Can't say I wouldn't wear the actual men's underwear. They look more comfortable for my body shape.

I say "Yay!!!" to this idea. Let's take it ALLLL off!!! :P

[BlooInBloo]

17. w00t! N3KID!!!!

[Bucky]

18. Not to rain on everyone's parade, but a truly dedicated terrorist could still conceal a bomb

And then the revised Patriot Act would all cops to really search anyone accused of walking funny.

[Flabbergasted]

19. Only you would come up with that.

:)

22. heh, no one can bitch about me not covering up while breastfeeding.
