A man who worked on the invention of a shock bracelet that the U.S. government has considered for using on all airline passengers says to gain a secure air travel experience, it's either his device or a tab of $14 billion a year.

In an interview with WND today, Per Hahne, whose device is being marketed now by Lamperd Less Lethal, a weapons corporation located near Toronto, said his product really isn't draconian.

'I would venture to say most people who are on board with a hijacker would welcome any kind of relief,' he said. 'Today the only thing there is is the bullet.' .... 'People have to realize this bracelet is not even armed until you are in an aircraft and a hijacking situation is under way,' he said. 'The bracelets are just bracelets.' ....

Denning had objections. 'Would every paying airline passenger flying on a commercial airplane be mandated to wear one of these devices? I cringe at the thought. Not only could it be used as a physical restraining device, but also as a method of interrogation, according to the same aforementioned letter from Mr. Ruwaldt.

'Would you let them put one of those on your wrist? Would you allow the airline employees, which would be mandated by the government, to place such a bracelet on any member of your family?'
