TSA employees fry their own genitals with radiation
Now, even though the NIST did not test the safety of these machines, it did
warn airport screeners to avoid standing next to them because the machines clearly emitted doses of radiation that could mutate
DNA and cause cancer.
The bulk of TSA employees, who we've already established are among the most intellectually-challenged individuals which are still somehow employable, don't seem to care that they're getting fried with radiation every day on the job. In fact, many TSA employees
don't even understand the laws of physics, as has been demonstrated over and over when they tell travelers truly idiotic things like, "There's no radiation from these machines." (True story. This is what one of our contributing writers was told by a TSA agent in Denver.)
Gee, how do they think the machines work? Do they think they're
magic? Who needs radiation when you can just use magic to see through people!
The one notable upshot from all this is the realization that TSA agents might experience so much DNA damage from standing next to those machines that they will be rendered completely infertile and therefore have no ability to reproduce. This, the scientists say, is called "
natural selection." Those best adapted to surviving will pass on their genes to the next generation, while those who fail to protect the integrity of their own DNA get removed from the human gene pool. I can't think of a more appropriate example of
natural selection in action. Darwin eats TSA agents as a mid-morning snack, it seems. So maybe those radiation machines do have a purpose after all...
