    Hardly anyone should.

    In the course of a normal day, the average person is exposed to about 1,000 microrems from all sources. The amount of radiation in a scan is about 10 microrems, so even if you got a hundred full-body scans in a day, it would only double the normal daily amount. Nothing to worry about, as far as I know.

    No fancy stuff needed. You take off your clothes.
    If no explosives, put clothes back on. Have a nice day! Go catch your plane.

    If there are explosives: Grab camera, take picture of naked terrorist with explosives attached. Arrest him/her. Have a bad day! Go directly to jail.

    No time travel required!

    Getting onto a train: No search/metal detectors at all

    Getting into a courthouse: Walk through simple metal detector that can't even detect change

    Getting onto a plane: Be prepared to have your nuts and boobs groped.

    Guess that makes sense.

    Oh... So, you go into the room alone with a person who feels you up, grabs your cock, sticks their fingers in your ass and then says... No, all I did was look as I was supposed to.

    What do you do now?

    Assuming you didn't resist and get tazered to death....

    Tom, the whole point of getting naked is so that they don't need to manhandle you through your clothes. They can look with no need for touch whatsoever.

    maybe they could design the inside the planes like roach motels. And when the terrorist pulls out a butter knife ,, they jar the plane to one side and the terrorist sticks the wall..

    be a good thing to stay in your seats with belts fastened at all times while plane is in flight too.. :D

    Why take picture of someone in the act of committing a crime?

    Makes the prosecutor's job easier in court!

    uhh, isn't the fact that they have a bomb on them enough evidence? sure they could plant the evidence but couldn't they plant the evidence just as easily if they were taking a pic?

    if the picture really mattered, a terrorist could just look like they are trying to frantically get the bomb off of them and act upset and say they planted the bomb before they took the picture. Taking a picture proves nothing

    Yes, because having to strip naked to prove my innocence to someone would be so much better than what they're already doing (virtual strip searches).

    Hey everyone, lets just give up our civil liberties right now! Want to go anywhere in the U.S., using any means of travel? Better strip naked so the government can prove we're not terrorists! Because we all know there's no documents or laws saying that we're protected from random searches without probable cause of guilt.:rolleyes:

    You can almost say the terrorist won. They are willing to kill themself, so they will either way or another. Whether going into a mall with a bomb and wanting to kill someone they will. Who knows what they will attack next? "terrorist kids" whom bring guns and bombs, to some schools already got metal dectors for them. I think the world is just going to turn into a bigger institution than it is already.

    Anyway, I think the gov't is always a step back. They should have worried about such things from the increase of terror attacks. Now we all have to do this within the airport, if the gov't decided to do this after 9/11 per say, maybe people wouldnt have thought of bomb implants, bombs in the ass, or what the fuck else. If they want to kill people, they will. The gov't isnt protecting us, they're really protecting their investments.

    I wonder if we could make all passengers walk (one by one) through a shielded chamber that would detonate explosives (if any).

    If you have no bombs on you, you won't blow up, no one will touch you or (mock shudder) see you naked.
