This is kind of one of the reasons I don't really post here a whole lot anymore, common sense has been replaced with this paranoia.
No one is going to look at me wife naked and no one is going to lay hands on me because I have a enough common sense to respect law enforcement and not provoke them.
Then again, in 3 minutes this guy's car could have been inspected and that would have been the end of it.
Well, one of us lacks common sense, and it's not me. Type in "airport scanner" into Google Images. I typed in "airport scanner" just now into Google News. The very first link that came up is of a Utah Congressman introducing a bill to ban these scanners. He labeled them "TSA Porn."

You may be fine with TSA jerks looking at your wife practically naked, but I'm not flying anymore to protest this crap.
- some people are left alone, some take off shoes.
then
- everyone takes off shoes, some get a pat down.
then
- all take off shoes, some get a pat down, some go through naked-scanner.
now
- all take off shoes, and all either get a pat down OR go through naked scanner.
next
- everyone goes through naked scanner.
then
- naked scanner technology improves.
Fight for our rights or lose them dude. Choice is yours. Myself, there is no way that some TSA thugs are going to look at my woman practically naked OR pat us down like we're criminals.
