Does anybody know if SD cards and the like will set off metal detectors? I know a USB flash drive will, but I don't know if SD cards have a high enough metal content to trip the sensors. If they don't, then there's at least one way to get your sensitive information past Homeland Scrutiny without letting them take a peek.

This "only the guilty need fear" crap really pisses me off. Unlawful/unreasonable search and seizure is one of the reasons why we live in the United States of America instead of the Colonies of Great Britain- and yet these Homeland Scrutiny assholes (never mind the rest of the government) are getting away with worse and worse offenses every day. We have a whole Constitutional amendment dedicated to outlawing this shit, and they do it anyway. The worst part is that nobody pays any attention to it- they just assume that's how it's always been, or that the government is responsible enough, and go on with life and only bitch about it when it slows them down getting somewhere.

Power corrupts. If we let the government keep claiming powers like these, they will use them whenever and wherever they can... and they will continue to seek broader powers. They may not be doing it with any intent to do harm in mind, but harm will be done. Write your representatives, spread the word- whatever you can do to make even the tiniest difference. The government and its agencies can only claim what powers we allow it to through our lack of vigilance and concern.

"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived of the use of them." - Thomas Paine

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.
