They don't even deserve the right spelling of fucker, they're fukkers.

I'm sick of this shit, aren't you?

Who the fuck do these assholes think they are trying to put shock bracelets on all airline passengers? Good fucking Lord! I mean this is really IT!

What's to keep them from doing it at all times?

Just who is this meant to protect, them or us? I sure as hell don't feel protected while getting shocked. "To protect you, we're going to endanger your life by shocking the shit out of you, this friendly electrocution brought to you by DHS."

FUKK THEM!

1. I am not setting foot on another airplane

I'm going to Vegas in September. The flight from here to there is about an hour. I'm taking Amtrak. It'll mean a 4 hour train ride followed by 5.5 hours on the bus. I'd rather do that.

2. I mean, even fucking Nazis didn't have this shit!

This is worse, a lot worse, than fascism.

It's worse than 1984.

The fact that this could even be merely proposed, is enough to cause the highest sense of outrage.

3. I doubt this would ever happen, but a Canadian company is pitching the idea

From the developer site:

The bracelets remain inactive until a hijacking situation has been identified. At such time a designated crew member will activate the bracelets making them capable of delivering the punitive measure - but only to those that need to be restrained. We believe that all passengers will welcome deliverance from a hijacking, as will the families, carriers, insurance providers etc. The F-16 on the wingtip is not to reassure the passengers during a hijacking but rather to shoot them down. Besides activation using the grid screen, the steward / stewardess will have a laser activator that can activate any bracelet as needed by simply pointing the laser at the bracelet - that laser dot only needs to be within 10 inches of the bracelet to activate it

Best of all, they expect the FLIGHT ATTENDANTS to activate it by shooting a laser at the badguy... Of course, also swinging the laser past innocent passengers and shocking them into submission! LMAO!!!

All I can say is "BRILLIANT!"
