Big Uncle Is Watching
Judging from my last few flying experiences, the TSA, Homeland Security Department, and all major airlines are not going to be satisfied until they are all out of business. From the cattle call lines, rude customer service, and friendly reminders in my luggage that it’s been searched by a professional, I no longer fly anywhere unless I have to for work.
Today the list of destinations that I will refuse to ever vacation grew ten cities longer:
Body-scanning machines that show images of people underneath their clothing are being installed in 10 of the nation’s busiest airports in one of the biggest public uses of security devices that reveal intimate body parts.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) recently started using body scans on randomly chosen passengers in Los Angeles, Baltimore, Denver, Albuquerque and at New York’s Kennedy airport.
Airports in Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas and Miami will be added this month. Reagan National Airport in Washington starts using a body scanner today. A total of 38 machines will be in use within weeks.
“It’s the wave of the future,” said James Schear, the TSA security director at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, where two body scanners are in use at one checkpoint.
[...]
“We’re just scratching the surface of what we can do with whole-body imaging,” Schear said.
That’s what I was afraid of. This is really a Department of Perversion and Psychosexual Assault and the invasion of privacy risks and potential for abuse is evident in every single one of it’s uses. It’s a child pR0nography machine as it will be taking photos of underage children every time they are screened. The “security officer” whose job will be to get up every morning and examine the naked bodies of everyone taking flights that day will undoubtedly be a masturbator of the first order while he mans the digital gloryholes of the 21st century:
The TSA says it protects privacy by blurring passengers’ faces and deleting images right after viewing. Yet the images are detailed, clearly showing a person’s gender. “You can actually see the sweat on someone’s back,” Schear said.
[...]
“I’m delighted by this development,” said Clark Kent Ervin, the former Homeland Security inspector general whose reports urged the use of body scanners. “This really is the ultimate answer to increasing screeners’ ability to spot concealed weapons.”
A lot of people concealing weapons in the sweat on their backs these days? It was unfair for me to character this is a Digital Gloryhole for the 21st Century. Gloryholes have two willing participants.
Without a doubt this is a clear violation of a person’s right to be secure in the persons and they are not going to listen until people boycott the cities clamoring for the right to ogle you, your wife, and children naked in exchange for what they are calling “security”.
“Most passengers don’t think it’s any big deal,” Schear said. “They think it’s a piece of security they’re willing to do.”
Wrong. The idea of Uncle Sam in a polyester blue security guard’s outfit leering at sweat glistening down my ample privates isn’t what this country is about and the fact that Rear Admiral Schear is taking his former title a little too literally comes as little surprise considering who he supported for President.
My opposition to this gross personal assault is not based on some Judeo-Christian sanctity I hold for the human form, as I have none, but rather the one I hold for personal liberty. That the government refuses to recognize even a prima facie respect for individual privacy is the reason why every Amendment in the Bill of Rights start with “The Congress Shall Make No Law…”
