Without too much difficulty, I could imagine mass transit requiring see-through bags for all it's passengers.

I lot of schools require transparent backpacks and whatnot.

I think its a trend we will definitely see more of in the future.

See-through bags are stupid, because you can still hide whatever you want in something else and then put it in the back pack or make a bomb look like something else, or simply strap a bomb on to yourself. A false feeling of security is all it is. Bombs don't even have to be big to cause a shit load of damage. You can kill a dozen people with one grenade, how hard would it be to hide it?

Enforcing such a rule in subways is stupid and a big waste of money. Also how embarrassing would it be for people with medication, condoms, whatever else. Also think about women, when they have a period do they really want the rest of the world to know? I don't think so.

You can't really do much, you can't stop and check everyone, you can't put metal detectors it will take ages for people to travel and cost a ton of money. The only thing I can think of is some type of screening technology, which is able to screen people as they walk and identify objects that they have with some type of an x-ray. Sort of like Total Recall, but this is years away and will cost a shit load to be put on every station.

You can’t fight terrorism, because they will always find a way to cause damage. You cannot secure everything.

I don't care about condoms but I'm sure some people are embarrassed about it, it was just an example.

If you saw a co-worker on the bus with a back pack full of condoms, what would you think? I would crack a joke or two. Anyway that's not really the issue.

WHat's to stop someone in a croud of people waiting to get searched form blowing themselves up prior to getting searched. I wouldn't mind getting searched, I just don;t want to get blown up waiting in line to get searched.

See through packs aren't designed to fix the entire problem - rather, they are a small step to help things out. In regards to school violence, small explosives and grenades are not the problems usually - guns and large knives can be. Could you still hide a gun within something else in the clear backpack? Probably. BUt they still help a bit. Just because something doesn't offer up a 100% solution to the problem does not mean it has no merit whatsoever.

I would agree it does have some merit in at least making a few of the people think twice before they do something stupid, but the people that could care less know there are ways around this and will use them. It is a small step toward the solution, but the problem is we can only take such small steps toward the solution that, by the time we reach it, the world will be long gone. This is thanks to the inexplicable amount of loopholes in EVERYTHING... damned limitless possibilities.

How about everyone just marches to the educational facility in single file and when they've fulfilled their mandatory 8 hours per day, they're marched back to their living quarters.

Transparent jumpsuits too, if it'll make you feel better.

Who is that directed at? Me?
Nothing wrong with students having to be a bit transparent in the actions when they are at school.

transparent knickers for teen age school girls, i'll start work on a design..
sensors that can detect milliparts of explosive etc would be far more effective in areas with large people movements. They walk through a corridor that scans for chemicals, those who register are taken aside for questioning/have their bag checked. Transparent bags are just another ineffective impost on the general population, and wont achieve shit; funny as tho

But you won't fix any problem whatsoever, I mean you could easily put a gun or a knife inside a binder with a zipper or even your pocket. You will just create a stupid system that won't create any solutions, only problems for regular people. Normal people will get held up because they have something suspicious inside their clear backpack, which turns out to be their lunch in a brown bag.
