EW.
Has anyone seen the news article about the new scanning devices in airports? Its supposed to replace a pat-down screening. However, it takes a GRAPHIC image of the body UNDER the clothes. Everything, from breast size to everything else, internal and external, shows up on this image.
Somehow this seems to take security a little too far!!! I'd definitely refuse. I'd totally freak out knowing some stranger is checking out all these people's intimate features for the sake of overblown security. UM. I have a ton of health probs but not even my doctor has that much info on me. I remember when they started requiring you to take your shoes off at airports. I got pissed just about that... I used to wear my bulkiest shoes to travel in so they wouldnt take up space in my luggage. Now, i pack them. What a pain!!! And Now they're taking naked pictures of people. SERIOUSLY. How far will this country go? That's too extreme. it seems to violate rights somewhere, somehow.
