NYPD developing infrared body scanner to detect guns on people in the street

A device that can detect whether a suspect is carrying a weapon without needing to frisk him is being developed by police.
Infrared rays will be used to scan a form of natural energy - like radiation - emitted from the body of someone concealing a gun on the street.
If something is obstructing the flow of that energy, such as a weapon, the gadget will show exactly where the object is on a suspect's body.



As a result, officers will get a digital outline of where the firearm is. The device could also be used to find suicide bomber vests, Newsday reported.
The New York Post reported that the device has been undergoing development for the past three years for the streets of New York City....

You know, it was only a matter of time. 

I'm sure that there are some people who will see this as a good thing.  People who are "sex slaves" for the Taliban.  Baaaaahhhhhhh....

Stay safe.

Time to start wearing chunks of thermal space blankets under ones clothes to simulate the infrared blocking properties of firearms.

Or holster designs will include the same so as NOT to display the outline of a firearm.

Or underwear or T-shirts with thermal camoflage built in.

Seems like a lot of money for something one can think up ways to defeat so easily. Stupid government.
