Subject: BS: flying - full body scan revised
Coming back home from Detroit yesterday at the airport security line they had a full body scanner.   Now I don't give it much thought other than I think it is wrong and sooner or later the courts are going to have to decide if it is legal. Strip search is strip search machine or otherwise and probable cause needs to be there I think. Anyway, ahead of me in the line maybe 3 people is a young blond college girl. Very beautiful with her Univ of Miami tank top. When she went into the machine with her hands above her head I watched the two security agents grinning and whispering to each other and joking. I know the person who sees it is in another room but I tell you it appalled me. Now like the other thread you can refuse to go in. If you do you are delayed and taken to a room and virtually strip searched anyway ... These two TSA agents with their stupid grins on their face made me want to go postal on their arse .. The young girl was just trying to go back to school most likely and as a father of 3 beautiful daughters I was pissed to say the least to see this kind of behavior. This is what we have become. The very society we supposedly fight against.   Makes me sick actually.
