Naked Body Scanner Images Of Film Star Printed, Circulated By Airport Staff...
Claims on behalf of authorities that naked body scanner images are immediately destroyed after passengers pass through new x-ray backscatter devices have been proven fraudulent after it was revealed that naked images of Indian film star Shahrukh Khan were printed out and circulated by airport staff at Heathrow in London

why does this make me feel so much safer? NOT
especially after the leak of our security screening procedures on the world wide web.
is this a jobs program for the defense investigative service?
OPM needs to hire the people to do the background checks.
no OPM.
maybe I can give my social secutiry info to McDonalds drive-through workers,too.
Just great, give the mall cops access to classified information.
You know....you don’t have to “clear” a dog. Dogs are dam good at doing searches. How much do these machines cost? I bought a good German Shepherd.....Price: $1500.00. Training to be a sniffer or search dog....Maybe $2000.00. The Puffer machines TSA wants cost $150,000.00 and maintenance is super high. Sounds to me like someone is in the back pocket of the companies producing these machines. Keep it simple stupid.
Just another reason why I will not fly anymore. If I can’t drive there, too bad for the economy.
Zero’s continued march toward total Government control over our lives. I don’t need Paul Blart knowing all my information.
What could possibly go wrong???
New York Times headline 2-9-10, “3.7% of TSA works named Mohammed.”
Obama offers millions in Muslim technology fund

I feel so safe.
TSA reminds me of bus drivers.....
“Access to relevant intelligence helps officers spot anomalies at the checkpoint — and helps them connect the potential dots,” the spokesman said. “It gives these employees the opportunity to exercise discretion based on their awareness of tactics and threats in the transportation environment and gives context to things they see every day which may otherwise not appear unusual.”
The most visible TSA employees — those who screen passenger bags at check points — will not have the security clearance.”
So the anomalies will be publicized - and the money wasted. I agree - bring on the sniffer pups.
Madison bus drivers? they make TONS of cash.
so does TSA...
Oh terrific. We have the name of a famous movie star. We get glances and peeks by the capt to see if it’s really us.
NOPE, NOT THEM! LOL.........so now we have another layer of snoops looking at our information!
Blech.
“Sounds to me like someone is in the back pocket of the companies producing these machines. Keep it simple stupid....”
Ya think?
Ya think SOMEONE that builds these might somehow have had “arranged” an outrageous sequence of events that culminated Christmas Day..including a fortunate fizzle?
