Generally, I am very pro-free speech/art/silliness and against a lot of the draconian "security" measures of the last few years.

However, this girl is a fucking idiot.

"Gee, I'm going to go to an airport, with a bunch of exposed circuits, wires, and putty sitting on my chest. NOTHING about that seems odd at all, right? Tee-hee!"

You fucking dolt.

Thank whatever god you're worshipping that they didn't shoot.

Some of the newer updates to the story say she was wearing that the day before and didn't think to take it off when she went to pick up a friend at the airport at 8am. At the very least it doesn't look like she intentionally wore it there to try and put one over on airport security.

However, I feel the same as you. There's free expression of ideas, and then there's just careless stupidity.

It's a good thing she's alive, though I honestly wonder if that would still be the case if she wasn't white, as terrible as that is to consider...

Unfortunately, I have a feeling that if she had been an Arab or Aryan (real Aryan, note, not that Nazi version), we'd be talking about a dead girl.
