FULL BODY SCANS at OUR AIRPORTS - VERY simple SoLuTiOn
Many of you know that they are installing these at the airports. They have about 300 now and expect 500 by the end of the year and another 500 installed in our airports next year.

The TSA agents are apparently making scenes when you decline to use these machines in what appears to be an effort to discourage people from refusing by hollering loudly "OPT OUT! WE HAVE AN OPT OUT!" like you are some kind of possible criminal

They are invasive, the images can be brought over into photoshop and inverted which expose full color nudity and they use Xrays which are known to have ties to cancer, so not wanting one is a sure no brainer in this case, unless your name happens to be Napolitano, who refused to walk through the machine herselfthwak... Snippet on this here > [link to current.com]

Here is the Solution to this problem, and it is a simple one.

Every single person that goes through security and is asked to use this machine, simply refuse and ask for patdown. Make it so much so that the TSA agents no longer have a voice at the end of the day from hollering so much! If this is done, they simply will not have the resources available to facilitate the higher volume of refusals, nor will they have the money to keep hiring agents...

Subsequently, they will have no other choice but to deep six the program...

Italy is removing them now and it would appear the UK is contemplating the same...


Now here is the latest news [50% excerpt]on this stupid Hitleresque program....thwak

Opt Out of a Body Scan? Then Brace Yourself

JOE SHARKEY, On Tuesday November 2, 2010, 1:40 am EDT
HAVING been taught by nuns in grade school and later going through military boot camp, I have always disliked uniformed authorities shouting at me. So I was unhappy last week when some security screeners at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago started yelling.

“Opt out! We got an opt out!” one bellowed about me in a tone that people in my desert neighborhood in Tucson usually reserve for declaring, “Rattlesnake!”

Other screeners took up the “Opt out!” shout. I was marched from the metal detector lane to one of those nearby whole-body imagers, ordered to take everything out of my pockets, remove my belt and hold my possessions up high. Then I was required to stand still while I received a rough pat-down by a man whose résumé, I suspected, included experience at a state prison.

“Hold your pants up!” he ordered me.
What did I do to deserve this? Well, as I approached the checkpoints, I had two choices. One was a familiar lane with the metal detector, so I put my bag on that. To my right was a separate lane dominated with what the Transportation Security Administration initially called “whole-body imagers” but has now labeled “advanced imaging technology” units. Critics, of course, call them strip-search machines.

I don’t like these things, and not just because of privacy concerns or because of what some critics have asserted are radiation safety issues with some of the machines that use X-ray technology.

No, I don’t like the fact that I have to remove every item from every pocket, including my wallet and things as trivial as a Kleenex.

Actually, much of this tech is already available in one form or another. Making it cost effective was the challenge. Cool, yes. Spooky, yes. But it would appear that Xbox has done it and uses multiple external sensors to facilitate it...

Those scanners are really tattoo machines.

They capture your bodies 360 signature then that will be used later down the road for identification purposes.

They can upload the data from these naked body scanners to satellites and track you where ever you go.

They aren't cross referencing the data to names yet, but they will. They need to get people acclimated to going through them first.

Then they will start using your ID everytime you get in one so that they can cross reference the name and face to the body signature.

I must disagree. That thread only presents the problem, while I present the solution...
