re: #551 Killgore Trout

That’s true. they do it that way because they don’t want to handle or search your computer. They ask you to turn it on to make sure it’s actually a functioning computer and not a gutted shell filled with explosives. It’s common sense security.

I didn’t say it wasn’t. But it’s a weasel statement to claim “Our officers don’t even turn computers on during inspection.” Technically true, but evades the actual point, the point that they do have the objects turned on.
