Just when I think people can't get any dumber... Are people really planning an "Opt-out Day" for the airport body scanner? And wait...they're doing it the day before Thanksgiving...the busiest day of the year??? What the hell is wrong with people? Where's all that damn patriotism that was going around like the swine flu a few years ago. Back when Bush told everyone that terrorists were hiding inside cereal boxes, you could've gotten people to do anything. Now, after actually catching a guy with a bomb in his underwear, people are sheepish.
"It invades privacy."
So does shrapnel from an airliner falling at a rate of 9.8 m/s through your bedroom ceiling and through your bed/body before coming to rest on the kitchen floor below.
"It's unAmerican."
Get the fuck outta here.
"Too much radiation"
Really? You get more radiation standing in front of a microwave.
Now conspiracy theories aside, we all saw two planes slam into a building a couple of years back. Considering how well the country handled that situation, I'm personally on board for any kind of searches up to and including stripping down completely and riding the plane naked. Get over yourselves! You are not that friggin important where you feel that you shouldn't be scanned. That sounds like some axis of evil stuff right there.
