Woman climbs into x-ray machine because she didn’t want to leave her bag
Metro ^ | February 13, 2018 | Tom Herbert

This is the moment a passenger climbed into an x-ray machine because she did not trust train security staff with her handbag.

An unbelievable photograph shows the women on all fours on a conveyor belt as she follows her bag as it passes through the security scanner.

It is thought the woman did not want to be separated from her bag and its contents at Dongguan Railway Station in China’s southern Guangdong Province.

And while it is unclear what she was carrying in her handbag it is likely to have been wads of cash traditionally given as a gift for Chinese New Year.

The woman had happily put her suitcases through the machine before walking through the security checkpoint holding the smaller handbag.

But security staff told her this bag would also have to be checked and so she reluctantly wheeled back round and placed it on the conveyor belt.

But officers were stunned when she started to climb on herself and were left so speechless they did not stop her as she collected her bags and rushed to get her train.

Dongguan Railway Station staff have advised passengers not to ride the X-ray machines saying radiation given off by the scanners can be harmful.

4th Amendment violations can induce people to do strange things.

Wow - the pictures are amazing.

It is a really stupid thing to do - but I am glad someone did it so I could get to see that.

Well, maybe she has good reason to not trust the Chinese Totalitarian State with her stuff.

The government is happiest when the citizens are on all fours and subject to the government.

Just when you think you’ve seen everything.
It would take a very tiny, agile person to get through that machine. She could escape from prison bars.

If this had been attempted in Guam or Norway, by one of the native women, I doubt she would have succeeded in her caper without getting stuck inside the machine like Winnie the Pooh stuck in the Honey Tree.

Humans, by virtue of being created in the image of God, have 4th amendment rights.

The United States recognizes that fact.

China does not.

I'm sure it's no more radiation than your teeth X-rayed... 42,000 times.

Anyone remember the old FLASH GORDON TV series from sixty years ago? I remember one episode in which they are flying between planets and their luggage is scanned for anything not allowed.

This is typical eastern behavior. Stupid is as stupid can.

The people standing around the machine didn’t have the brain capacity to shut it off - or there are no shut-offs because there is no safety protocol in this country either.

Another sh1thole country doing sh!thole things.

Ah, didn’t notice it was in China.

But considering the 4th Amendment _recognizes_ a natural right, it can be violated anywhere - just the jurisdiction may not care.
