    Body scanners at airports.
    These things are put into place for security measures against BAD people. They are not there so someone can take a peek at your x-ray and in a back room and wack it to that image. Why are some people SO against anything that is put in motion to better protect the innocent. If I'm getting on a plane that is going to be traveling at 500 MPH at 30,000 ft in the air your damn right I want every single person that is on that plane to go through the most thorough search know in existence. There are enough things to worry about when flying without the thought of some jackass wanting to commit an act shear stupidity. I say bring more scanners to check for these people.

    I just don't like my crotch snatched, or my boobs pinched. Its been done, all in the name of a security search. Surely it can be done without invasion of privacy.

    Body scanners I don't have a problem with.

    Hello t:

    In the short amount of space we've got, I'll try to answer your question... Bad guys are always one step ahead of the good guys. So, if you inspect our shoes, they'll use underpants... If you inspect our underpants, they'll use liquids. If you prevent liquids, they'll stick a bomb up their a$$. If you stick you finger up our a$$es, they'll blow up a train. If we created a police state, where everybody was subject to search at any time, you'd STILL miss the big bombs. If you put troops on every inch of our border, bad guys will still get in.

    Instead of victimizing us further, the government should have gone after Bin Laden. I'm not willing to give up my liberty for security... Not me - no way, no how.
