I'm still trying to figure out how some scanner that sees through everything down to someone's skin will help anything. Doesn't everyone have skin?

These will deter NORMAL people. They won’t deter maniacal fanatical dirty-beard life members of the Cult of Death who are willing to hide explosives and/or chemicals anywhere on/in their body because they are so full of hate for Christians and Jews and self-loathing that they will gladly desecrate and destroy their bodies to bring about world wide sharia.

Is there anything that will deter people who are happy to strap explosives around their 6 year old children?

A better and more upfront appropriate question would be: Will political correctness, giving terrorists that same rights as American citizens, the unionization of TSA, and protecting ‘privacy rights’ save us from potential wouldbe terrorists?

“Can Imaging Technologies Save Us From Terrorists?”

No moreso than increasingly armored vehicles can save our troops from IED’s in Iraq and Afghanistan.

The peculiar notion that we should use technical means to a “solution”, rather than hunting down the guilty and slaying them Old Testament style is an artifact of Western Culture that we will have to put on the shelf sooner or later.
