(OP) User ID: 1130664 United States10/23/2010 03:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Most GLP regulars know this, but here is additional information regarding the naked body scanners from a health stand point, as opposed to a fourth amendment violation, child pornnography issues, and basic dehumanization tactics. (NaturalNews) The new, full-body security scanners being introduced at airports pose a greater skin cancer risk than governments have previously acknowledged and are especially dangerous to children and pregnant women, a new study has found. The devices, known officially as backscatter X-ray machines, were introduced after the "Christmas Day Bomber" successfully got an explosive device through conventional airport screening. They use up to eight seconds of X-rays over the entire body to create a three-dimensional, full-body image of anything that passengers might be carrying beneath their clothing. More than a hundred of the scanners have already been rolled out at 32 U.S. airports, and they are being introduced in other countries, as well. The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) plans to have 450 of the scanners deployed by the end of 2010. A new analysis of the radiation dose delivered by the machines, conducted by David Brenner and colleagues at Columbia University, found that because the beams concentrate X-rays on the body's skin, the effective dose may be 20 times higher than previously estimated. Because the skin is one of the body's most radiation-sensitive organs, the scanners significantly increase the risk that passengers will develop basal cell carcinoma, a kind of skin cancer. Children and the 5 percent of adult passengers with certain relatively common gene mutations are at significantly higher risk due to their reduced ability to repair DNA damage. "If there are increases in cancers as a result of irradiation of children, they would most likely appear some decades in the future," Brenner said. Basal cell carcinoma normally occurs in the heads and necks of people between the ages of 50 and 70. For this reason, Brenner suggested that, at minimum, these areas of the body should not be scanned. Read the rest: [link to www.naturalnews.com] Real Eyes, Realize, Real Lies.....

Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Sounds like if he cannot figure out alternative modes of transportation, then he deserves to be treated like cattle at an airport in the first place. |

User ID: 1139191  India10/23/2010 11:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Please refer to the Double Slit experiment thread here on GLP. Search is down or I would have posted a link. Although its not mentioned on that thread, this whole body scan part is linked to that. Electrons behave differently on being 'aware' that a camera is watching them. Humans are no different. Traffic cameras, security cameras, ALL OF THEM, under the pretext of a false flag 'security threat' are filling up all living space with cameras. This is to aid in the change of behavior in our conscious and our sub-conscious. This method of behavioral control is less expensive,and is very much easy to manipulate , after the subjects have been exposed to a few years of full exposure to cameras. Also tied into this form of behavioral manipulation are the extended questioning at airports, and making the sheep aware that they NEED to be WATCHED suspiciously. To repeat, this aids behavioral control. You basically can tie in ALL forms of OBSERVATION, extra normal SECURITY ALERTS, and all forms of harassments to human freedoms and privacy as the implementation of such manipulative tools, being set in place. The goal: WE ARE WATCHING YOU> SO YOU WILL BE EASIER TO CONTROL. They are basically setting up a NWO global prison camp in place. and this is the pre-stage.

User ID: 1117394  Canada10/23/2010 11:21 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Again humans are sheep and do not care for fellow humans. I will not be flying. I will not be scanned. If every person right now told their work to go jump in a lake and not fly, and refuse to fly until corrected, and all people did this, this would be gone in 48 hours. Airports could not afford to comply. Again, people are in control, but really not in control of their life. |

User ID: 1139428 United States10/23/2010 11:29 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | it is sexual abuse and dangerous to one's mental and i am sure this crap is hurting the airline business Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1139341Planes are booked full most of the time, believe me. Besides, not everyone is selected for the extra security measures. You'd never get through security if that was the case. Anyone does have the option to opt out of the scanner. As far as the pat down, I just don't see that it's sexual abuse. People are over reacting. I wonder how these people react when a doctor examines them. And please...I am not defending the TSA, but how many of these complaining people have traveled to other countries? Same procedures, but yet Americans are the only ones offended by all this. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1029110 United States10/23/2010 11:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Walt Disney Corp. has nothing to do with TSA's new regulations. This letter is openly asking for Walt Disney to do something about it and is somehow connecting the corporation to this situation, which is a bit wrong. I'm not saying that TSA is correct, I think the body scanners are one of the worst decisions made in the history of the airline industry. But I think its wrong to connect Disney to something it has nothing to do with (pedophilia aside). But of course, this site will try to connect ridiculous information together all the time, so don't mind me. |

Walt Disney Co. 500 South Buena Vista Street Burbank, CA 91521 Dear Mr. Iger, I am writing for your advice about how to best enjoy a great Walt Disney World experience with the new prohibitive TSA/commercial airlines "security" shenanigans. My wife and I have two children (one strapping 14 year old boy and our beautiful little girl, 12). They would just love to go to Disney World and we would love to take them – but now we don't know how to get there! Please allow me to graphically explain. On the way to Disney World at the airport, United States government agents now force children and their parents to make a difficult choice between: 1. a dose of ionizing radiation concentrated almost entirely on your skin to create a nude image on the government's computer screen. They call this Whole Body Imaging, or WBI. Please see attached sample image of a male subject, also here. Note that the detail of the image, even before zooming in, allows the viewer to see that the glans is uncircumcised. 2. a government agent using his gloved fingers to grope/frisk/probe the exterior of the child's entire clothed body (including inspection of private parts) in order to ascertain the same detail of information as the WBI would have done (see above). They call this Enhanced Pat-down. 3. police escort to interrogation by TSA security as to your reasons for refusing the above two choices...followed by confirmation that you did not verbally abuse any government agents...followed by being permitted to turn around and go home. As you can imagine, none of these choices appeals to us. Other than a fleet of Disney private planes or opening scaled-down Disney World resorts all across the country, how do you recommend that paying customers get to your resorts if decent caring for their children now prohibits them from using commercial airlines? Now that you are aware that children must submit to nude photography or inspection of private parts in order to enjoy the Disney experience (and on the way home), your silence on this issue may be seen by many as passive agreement with this new pathway to your business, which I am sure is not the case. Please confirm. Regards, Arthur M.M. Krolman CFA Founder and President Krolman Corporation 56 Roland St., Suite 201 Boston, MA 02129 Source: (Disclaimer, as instructed, I would normally not copy and paste any article in its entirety, but since this is a nationally published letter and not an article, disclosure carries no harm)-- [link to www.lewrockwell.com] Disney could care less, they probably buy the nude scans from TSA for their own enjoyment! Fuck Disney, they're all child molesters! |
