You need to watch the video from Chattanooga an see if you still think its ok because the parents were witnesses. The scanners are only an option in a few places. Chattanooga is not one of them. An I'm pretty sure children don't have the option of choosing to drive.

I dont think it is right for a disabled woman to be forces to show her breast. EVER! She doesn't have to fly is BS. Sometimes people do have to.
 
The exponetial ramping up of this security boondoggle is no accident. What we have is a snowball rolling downhill, which is going to be an avalanche, soon, unless it hits a major obstruction. Mainly, the people, upon whom this offensive behavior has been perpetrated.

Remember, never waste a good crisis.

It is my belief that this whole administration is set on causing as much harm as possible to the USA...Why, I don't know. But, since this last election, they see the door closing on their opportunities and therefore, are pushing their agenda as hard as possible, knowing that it will be hard to undo some of the damage.

Do you blame Obama when you get constipated too. Just wondering.

Those machines have been in the works for about 6 years now. The guy in charge of TSA made the call. Obama isn't God you know. He doesn't control the whole government. The downhill slide started long before this administration.
 
I have been groped since 9/11. I have an internal defib/pacemaker and cant go thru any machine.
What I dont like is some airports just do it in front of everybody, no private room. That sucks.
 
They SAY they don't save the pictures, but there was that whole scandal about them taking an employee's full body scan picture and everyone making fun of his "junk" um yeah. Don't save the pictures I smell some BS!!
Not that I have any of that "junk" to worry about, but if I am gonna be a porn star I'd rather get paid for it, ya know?

No thanks, I'll continue to drive. I'm a control freak anyway, so I ALWAYS drive.


Remember a while back I posted about the mobile versions: http://blogs.forbes.com/andygreenberg/2010/08/24/full-body-scan-technology-deployed-in-street-roving-vans/
and you can google the dirt on the TSA employee thing: http://articles.cnn.com/2010-05-06/travel/tsa.scanner.assault_1_full-body-scanning-tsa-screener?_s=PM:TRAVEL

I wouldn't mind so much if I actually thought these things would be effective. I think that plastic explosives are easily hidden, they can be molded and formed into all kinds of things. TSA employees are low-paid and not terribly well trained. I think too much would be missed. Suppose Terrorist A goes through the scanner....officer that's my colostomy bag...do you really think that person will be pulled out of line to be checked? Terrorist B opts for the pat down...sir, I have my period...again do you think it will be checked? There are so many ways around these scanners and pat downs that it isn't funny. I think it gives the public a false sense of security; and the terrorists, who aren't dumb (flight school, anyone?), more incentive to be inventive.
