If there are explosives in or on your shoes, the puffer will detect them.

Shoe removal is completely unnecessary for those who go through the puffer or are ETDed.

Comrade Hawley is a true un-American piece of garbage for making everyone take off their shoes. He's a small-minded little coward who couldn't secure a paper sack.
