I have a backscattering fetish.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==Explanation==<br /> Many people have cried out against airports using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_X-ray backscatter x-ray machines] as a security measure, claiming that the machines have the ability to create a photo-quality image of the subject naked. [[Black Hat]] is helping these people fight back by giving the men an opportunity to force the security guard to see them with erections. The person speaking in the title text doesn't need an erectile dysfunction pill to achieve erection in this situation because he is aroused by the physics principles which make this technology possible.<br /> <br /> ==Transcript==<br /> :[There is an airport security checkpoint where a queue of ten passengers is waiting to go through a backscatter x-ray scanner. Near the back of the line, Black Hat is standing next to a stand which says &quot;Viagra $20&quot;. One passenger next to him is drinking a glass of water; another is contemplating the sign.]<br /> :Security Guard (thinking): Oh god.<br /> <br /> {{comic discussion}}<br /> [[Category:Comics featuring Black Hat]]<br /> [[Category:Politics]]</div>
