NYPD deploying terahertz radiation goggles in order to see who is packing without having to pat anyone down.
This should put an end to accusations of racial profiling, for the cops won’t actually have to accost anyone, just call up their Inspector Gadget glasses. More than that, it should actually be pie in the face of the people that constantly bitch about racial profiling, for the racial composition of people carrying will closely match the criminal conviction stats. The argument that “the NYPD is ignoring all those white people packing heat” will fall flat. After all, who will you believe? The civil rights crowd, or the cops’ lying bionic eyes?
But I said “should” in the above paragraph, because this is New York City, where nothing is too good for certain protected minorities. The NYPD will probably only use this technology against Tennessee housewives with CCW permits visiting the 9/11 Memorial.
