Thankfully they voted to put this on hold till further investigations on privacy and health have been completed.

Its a great idea to combat terrorism but the full body xray just violates a persons human rights on all levels!

Full Body, I’d like to be alive rather than be blown up thank you very much.

I would like one of the scanners to built into the next version of iphone…. come on Steve Jobs get with the times….

Well.. i dont reckon this a smart idea at all, this is surely a unethical thing. Security at the stake of human respect must not be executed. regards.

First time I’ve flown since before 9/11 (Alb to Stl) and agreed readily for the scan. No big deal, isn’t like I will be on the net. The observers (security) are professionals and highly trained.
I felt safe. I feel all passengers AND crews should be required to be scanned in such manner. One never knows who or when one is going off the deep end. Implulsive, suicidal, mass murderer or planned I don’t know you.

SCAN SCAN SCAN away. Yes, I will gladly show my eggs and sausage to fly free of fear.

You, dudes with stupid civil liberties bulls**t. You want to discuss all that s**t when you are roasting in a giant flying metal coffin on your way to hell…bon voyage!!!!

I will say again in plain English “Let then see your privates = safe flight. Be a CL & F freak, don’t scan = live in fear of being blown up.”

Be a MAN, grab your balls, smile and walk on through.

PS: Besides if me naked excites the security people, Yahooooooo.

Wow, the cowardice of some is shocking.

Chickens.

Worthy of note AND crew – we have a far greater risk of having the flight crew be food poisoned by unscanned ground and catering crews than we do of having our planes turn into a “giant flying metal coffin”

Israel has a excellent record at their airports with not a scanner in sight.

Just another way of selling the fear at an outrageous financial cost to the taxpayers. Not buying, if you are that scared of getting on a plane stay home – we don’t need your scanners perving at us or our children.

Naked images of children are child pornography whether they are stored or not. And I have yet to hear anyone state that the images are not stored there OR SENT ANYWHERE ELSE TO BE STORED!

Paranoid? Why yes I am thank you for asking! I’m also sick of politicians lying to me and trying to scare me out of my rights!

The problem is that all it provides is a FEELING of security, not real security. So far, there is not one past airline-related terrorism incident that would specifically have been caught by these scanners.

Experts evaluating them say they would not have cuaght the underwear bomber. They would not catch anything inside body cavities or under the skin. They would not even have prevented the 9/11 hijackings. The ‘weapons’ those individuals used were actually ALLOWED on planes back then and airport security KNEW they had them and let them on anyway.

These scanners may make you FEEL safe, but they have not actually increased security at all. (Ranks right up there with TSA never actually catching any actual criminals/terrorists/suspect, etc.) So far, they only have caught little old ladies, nuns, and men that object to being groped…people like that..

ridiculous
