On tonights NBC news they showed an actual "new generation" screening machine and put a subject through it. It picked up a gun..a box cutter..a plastic explosive and a bag of powder under the subjects clothes. Very impressive!!!:ncaabbs::ncaabbs:

I turned to my wife after watching the report and asked a simple question...
What if a terrorist has an explosive up his ass?

If it took me 2 seconds to beat this technology...How long will it take someone bent on blowing up a plane?

Anyone that thinks that this security theater is keeping you from getting blown up by a truly determined individual is delusional.

I want that job!

Interesting article posted earlier by gsloth on the Parliament Quad board. Really points out the "all show and no go" quality of current screening in the US.

The backscatter screening has some major flaws. It doesn't get into body cavities.

Remember in 2004 two Russian airliners were destroyed in mid-air by two female Chetzen suicide bombers who had the explosives up their vaginas.

Just out of curiosity, how did they know where the explosives were hidden?

Bend over, grab your ankles, cough three times. Isn't that what is done in prison.
