XXX Airport Body Scanners

Coming soon to an airport near you---the TSA has installed XXX Body Scanners raising privacy concerns. Security workers will be able to peer through your clothes as the image displayed will reveal the nude body of each individual.

Currently being tested in Los Angeles & JFK New York and in use at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.

Ready to have your body image stored in a federal data base or that of your children? The government claims that the image can not be stored, printed or transmitted and no one other than TSA Screener's will view them? Right...no snapshot will become available for evidentiary purposes?

What is next, full body cavity and strip searches to be permitted to board an airplane? Where is the line drawn?
