The naked scanner.

[conny]

Wasn't this tried out/being tried out at Manchester Airport?
Think something was mentioned about not scanning children under 12 years of age, but not sure.

As Tim says, there is also the radiation factor to be considered.
How many times a year is a safe number?
Should you only be scanned so many times in your life time?
What possible long term effects are there?

Not being an air traveller I have never been through one of these or been frisked so I can't make any judgement on either but they do raise questions that need to be answered and answered honestly, not just platitudes by the authorites to keep the masses calm.

I dont think its a problem if they are put in the cargo hold

Don't think i want to go in there if the way the luggage is treated is anything to go by

 

[Blasphemous]

I sensed a certain disappointment in that statement conny.

 

[oompah]

Or another way is to find out what is ****ing the natives off enough to want to blow the planes up in the first place.

Especially by one of the young ladies at the party last night who was dressed as an American Policewoman or her mate who was Laura Croft!



Oh to be 30 years younger!

you could skip a few holidays and use the money saved for a private jet

Try being examined by a very fit and attractive young female student doctor.

Believe me I have tried!!!

I am no longer allowed within 200 metres of King's College Hospital

and not dressed as Robin Hood may help as well, especially if you were wearing tights also

it is said there will be exemptions and children under 18 years old may be one of them

 

[Chukka63]

so how long before they conceal the bomb/materials on a kid under 12????

 

[conny]

especially if you were wearing tights also

Definitely NOT!

I chose the trouser version.

Must admit though, those young lasses had my bow all of a quiver!

 

[nickso]

it is said there will be exemptions and children under 18 years old may be one of them

and that makes it pretty much useless if its meant to be the daddy of all security devices.

every bit helps but we have all seen the pictures of kids with weapons smiling away for their beloved terrorist fathers. it wouldnt take much for one of them to strap a bomb on little johnny.

 

[ColJack]

it's a double standard..
they're quite happy for the kids to run around once on holiday in bikini's and even less for some of the little ones, but they balk at a computer generated image, which will likely include underware, being seen by security vetted employees in a sealed room..?

 

[NoHounds]

it is said there will be exemptions and children under 18 years old may be one of them

i wonder what other exemptions may be it is said they will be a few
