Title wouldn't fit. Original title is "Hidden Government Scanners Will Instantly Know Everything About You From 164 Feet Away"

I think it is about time to put our foot down. Not quite sure how we do it though.

Guess that whole secure in their persons and property thing got left by the side of the road.

If this is for real, forget airports - they will be installed at grocery stores, post offices, sports stadiums, bus stations- you name it - Cowardly New World is here.

More than you would imagine from reading a headline and excerpt.

I read the hyperbole-loaded article. Not surprisingly, it’s loaded with hyperbole.

If this report is true, then should be no problem locating IEDs in the field.

Wonder if this scanner can fit on a drone? That would sure help the Health Care Nazis, eh? They could put Bloomberg in charge. /s
We must turn all this around, it is getting to the breaking point. I think that is what they want. We break and they can REALLY change things. I don’t even like to think about it.

Sounds like the junk from the Terminator movies, made real.

I wonder if it can detect flatulence.

I’ve been telling people for a few years already that gun rights will soon be a moot point. This is the proof. When they start mounting these things on light poles and telephone poles along with cameras(that can ID you from your face) on every pole, your puny antiquated little guns won’t mean SHIT. If they scan something on you they don’t like, they will instantly revoke your gun “privileges” and issue a warrant for your arrest. Then the drones will swoop in and tazer your ass from 30 feet above your head and wait for a paddy wagon to come hog tie you and haul you to a detention center.
Mark my words. It is less than 20 years away.

Thanks for the link.
However, discerning a lot about your chemistry IS NOT the same as knowing everything there is to know about you.
Words have meaning, and the outlandish claims in the article you posted are *still* hyperbole. Or, in the vernacular of the day, “bullshit”.
