If what's good enough for Americans isn't good enough for these clods, they should've stayed home.

That's just my point.

this is not good enough for Americans! Security "procedures" in airports are counterproductive and useless. There needs to be a more sophisticated method of screening than what what has been edicted and then employed by these vapidly stupid TSA employees.

It's an insult to Americans and it is an insult to the royal family of Spain.

Well, it's what we've got at the moment. And if visitors don't like it, they can bloody well stay home!

Another expert at hyping a problem.

While offering no specific technological answers to effect the vague and grandiose solution you offer of a "more sophisticated method".

Well I just saw something on discovery that uses very low levels of radiation to look just beneath clothing but no penetrate skin, kind of like those x-ray vision glasses that were always advertised in comics, looked pretty cool. They were working on some kind of mask over the image to protect privacy so that only questionable items showed up but not other embarrassing details.

The scan of a test subject with a gun and a ceramic knife showed both clearly through his clothes, you could also make out his Y fronts, which was the problem they are addressing ;-)

The point of the "security" at airports isn't security. It's partly pacification of the masses by bolting the barn door after the horse has escaped. Its primary purpose is to test police state tactics on US citizens. This was proven by the fact that the first head of the "TSA" wasn't someone with security experience, but Clinton's BATF director.
