If Soros is involved, I wouldn't be surprised if these things secretly transmit a high quality image along with identifying information to an electronic vault. This is the guy who nearly intentionally brought down the British government by manipulating their currency.

TSA claims it's harmless. Many Non-government scientists and doctors believe otherwise. From what I can find, they have not been independently tested, so we have to take the TSA's word on this.

Even so, those two did more damage to our freedoms by failing. Had they succeeded, we wouldn't know that they smuggled their bombs in their shoe and underwear, so we wouldn't be removing shoes and undergoing virtual strip searches.

When was the last time someone tried to bring a bomb onto an aircraft in an American airport? The government had many warnings about the underwear bomber, had him on the 'do not fly' list and still provided him with the paperwork (visa, etc) he needed to board the plane to Detroit. Exactly how do naked body scanners and enhanced pat downs make us safer?

Those that were stopped were stopped by the passengers, not the TSA. If the TSA ever stopped a bomb, we would hear about it for weeks. How do the new naked scanners and pat downs make things safer? The terrorists already know they can get through this by placing the explosives in their body cavities.

All identifying information was redacted by the people who posted the images, but they claim it was there when they obtained them.

How many of those would have been caught 10 years ago? Probably most of them. How many of those folks had ill-intent?

About a year ago. Now tell us about all the terrorists and terrorist plots the TSA has stopped.

Can anyone name even one terrorist the TSA has stopped since it's creation.

You must not of heard that 100 images from a scanner that supposedly were never saved were released on the internet today. If the airlines were doing the searches it would be one thing. Because it's the Federal Government, it's a violation of our constitutional rights. Name one terrorist the TSA has stopped since it's inception.

Name one terrorist or terrorist plot the TSA has stopped since it's inception. Last week it was enhanced pat down. This week, it's hands down the pants. Can cavity check be too far behind? It's amazing how people are willing to give up their rights in the name of perceived safety.

I feel more secure: TSA pats down a screaming toddler

Forget all that. Just a simple plastic athletic cup to protect his 'junk' from the hands of the TSA. Do women have similar protective devices?

The question is this - Are these measures the price of 'safety' or are they a violation of our constitutional right against unreasonable search and seizure?

Do y'all have a cranberry wine?

I'm still trying to find out what this is supposed to stop. Experts have already said it wouldn't have stopped the underwear bomber. It also won't stop someone with explosives inserted inside their body, which the terrorists have already done overseas. How is this making us safer? How will it stop someone from getting on a plane from outside the country?

What other areas of society do you see so much credibility given to a high school student?

Where did I say it would shut down the Christmas Season. I clearly wrote shopping season. So if 50% of those mall and shopping center shoppers went online instead, what impact would it have? The online companies would not be able to keep up.

If bombs were planted in a few malls and shopping centers across the country, it wouldn't affect folk's shopping habits?

If the same news agencies reported that certain vegetables were contaminated, would you wait until someone you know gets sick before believing it?

If the same news agencies reported that certain beef was contaminated, would you wait until someone you know gets sick before believing it?

I guess if it weren't happening they way people are saying, the TSA and homeland security would be denying it rather than calling for compliance.

If you won't believe all the first hand accounts of personal experiences that have been posted in the last 2 weeks or reports from major news organizations, why would you believe a first hand account posted here? The TSA themselves aren't denying it.
