                         HANDS OFF THE GUN BRA

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Madam Speaker, it started with the training bra and 
then it came to the push-up bra; the support bra, the Wonder bra, the 
super bra. There is even a smart bra. Now, if that is not enough to 
prop up your curiosity, there is now a new bra. It is called the 
holster bra, the gun bra. That is right, a brassiere to conceal a 
hidden handgun. Unbelievable. What is next? A maxi-girdle to conceal a 
stinger missile? Beam me up.
  I advise all men in America against taking women to drive-in movies 
who may end up getting shot in a passionate embrace. I yield back all 
those plain old Maidenform brassieres and chainlink pantyhose.
