They SHOULD keep things like these classified. When the security of your country is at stake, it makes NO sense to divulge anything that would give the opposition ANY advantage.

This is what I have against the news media who are always digging up things that could be used against us. As an example, what good is it if the news media let out information about how we're gonna strike a certain place in Afghanistan on such and such as date because we suspect terrorists there. STUPID would you say? Why even bother when you're giving them heads up!

The whole TSA thing is just theater meant to make us think they're doing something to make flying "safe"

It's a test to see whether we have turned into sheep yet. What they say about the scanners are lies. The images ARE being saved (or else why could we see them on the Internet?) and they are a lot clearer. They can see sweat.

And when the next would be bomber has a device in a body cavity will all of you that submit to the current radiation exposure or TSA molestation submit to a body cavity search? I will not subject myself nor my family to needless radiation exposure nor TSA molestation. I will not be flying until the TSA changes these procedures.

They may not work for security, but the sure worked for Chertoff. His clients manufacture them and when he testified before Congress for their use, no conflict of interest was brought up. Funny how that works. Also, just before the US agreed to buy them, I read that Germany had tested them - they failed to detect many things.

The obvious solution to our seurity concerns is to fly naked. That way as a passenger enters the security check area, they can be viewed grouped and body cavity searched quickly. Think of the comfort flying naked would be in the summer? Fly naked" the ultimate in security.
