It's insane how it's ok to have nude video of you taken every time you want to fly on a plane, but it's not ok to walk around nude; that's illegal. The idea is that when the government wants to take a public nude video of you, you must submit, for "your own safety." If you want to take a public nude video of yourself, that's illegal and you will be arrested, and your sanity and morals questioned. What if you keep your shoes off in an airport and walked around barefoot, and refused to put them back on? How fast do you think you'll be kicked out of the airport, or possibly arrested? If they want you to take your shoes off, and you don't, how fast do you think you'll be refused entrance, or possibly arrested?
What are you going to do if you don't want some TSA official jerking off to your wife's nude image in the "secure back room" or at home? Are you going to stop flying? Do you really believe that that won't happen? When that does happen, and your wife or daughter's pictures are leaked to the internet, and so on, is it going to be enough for you when the first TSA guy that gets caught is fired, or you settle the lawsuit with the government? Are you going to feel better then? Is it going to be enough when they fire the next guy that does the same thing? Is it going to be enough when they say, "Well, we can't stop all of the abuse" and they don't fire the guy, but they transfer him to another portion of the TSA service? Is it going to be enough, when it's not a headline anymore, and we all just accept that nude body scans of our wives and daughters are going to be distributed, outside of our control? Are you really going to be surprised when the government says, "Oh, we didn't know that was possible or that it was happening" ten years after the retro-active evidence surfaces? Seriously, people.
The propaganda on these body scanners is horrible, but typical. I've read more than 20 articles on this, and there is a ton of conflicting information. The headlines, "Most OK with TSA full body scanners." "Airport Security bares all, or does it?" Ridiculous. They don't explain the differences in technology or software or anything. The government, meanwhile is pushing for the worst, as usual, and the public is caught with their pants down, well, pants up and nude, in this case.
Most people are not 100% fully "OK" and happy about body scanners taking nude videos of them and displaying them to an unknown number of TSA employees, or the public at large. People are not ok with their sweaty cocks and cunts displayed in great detail for unknown TSA employees, in a back room or on full display. What people are ok with, is having a nude scan taken of them, when their only other choice is to have some semi-known person rubbing their tits and their balls during a pat down. The people they tested had only the choice of a full pat down, or a nude body scan. The headlines are intentionally misleading. The comprehensive test group info isn't published for a reason. The articles don't clearly specify what choices people had. Sure, most people would do a virtual strip search over an physical strip search, of course. So would I, but who would rather have a full nude body scan over walking though a metal detector? Almost no one. The government is trying to have the full body scanners replace metal detectors entirely. The government would prefer it show your internal organs also, so you they could catch people with drugs in their fake tits or up their asses and vaginas, but hey, one step at at a time . . . otherwise people might not be "OK" with it.
The government is lying every chance it gets, and the media is perpetuating it, as usual.
The articles mix millimeter scan technology with X-ray technology, as well as software differences, and implementation differences. The idea is to concentrate on convincing the public that it will improve safety, which it won't because you can still fit plenty of plastic explosive in your ass, vagina, or your fake tits and ass. At the same time, they want to confuse people into thinking that the scanners will be something that they are not. It's the same old plan, it just sickens me when people are duped by it, then surprised later on and look for some innocent to blame, when it was their fault all along.
"Let me take a nude picture of you, for your own safety." Maybe I'll try that line on the next hot girl I see. If if doesn't work, I could try to use some of the current government excuses like, "Well, I'm just going to take a picture, then it will be destroyed, immediately. In fact, this camera I have here, isn't even capable of storing pictures." If that doesn't work on her, I can lie, "don't worry, the camera isn't good enough to be able to see your tits or your vagina, or any details like that, not that I would care anyway, because I'm a professional government employee." If that doesn't work, "Ok, well, so I lied. I'm not really sorry that I lied, because well, it was for your own safety that I lied. So to clarify, the camera is capable of seeing your private parts, and actually I will be looking intently at them because that's where I would expect all the interesting contraband to be, but again, it is for your own security. Plus, if it makes you feel better, I'll shoot it in Sepia and shake the camera a little so that image is blurry and I won't really be able to see your private parts clearly. How's that?" Ok, well, maybe I'm a little out of touch, since these excuses seemed to have worked for the "Girls Gone Wild" guys pretty well. . . . but I hope those girls don't represent all of us, not that I have anything against them, but those girls probably might not make the best policy decisions for all of us, when it comes to privacy.
American trends.
In 2006, Hope Steffey was cuffed, injured, jailed, and forcibly stripped of her clothing by several male and female police officers, and left nude in the cell for 6 hours with no phone call. This happened immediately after she was assaulted by a family member, and called police for help. She was one of several woman that this has happened to. How would you feel if that happened to your wife or your daughter, or for that matter, your husband or your son?
Again this year, some high school girls are charged with manufacturing, disseminating, and possessing child pornography. Several times in the last few years, people under 18 have been convicted of possessing their own "underage" pornographic pictures. That is insanity. Insanity people! Wake the fuck up! That should NEVER happen. Like most laws, child pornography laws were created under good intentions, to protect irresponsible "children" who had irresponsible parents, from being exploited. Preventing exploitation of "children", is probably a good thing. Convicting children for exercising freedom, is not a good thing. That should be the sole responsibility of the parents, not the government.
Is this the America you envisioned? Try flying out of a third world country. Tell me how free you feel. I feel freer in a third world country than I do in America. Don't get me wrong, third world countries would love to be able to control your life as much as the US does, but those governments can't afford it. Wow, wouldn't that be cool if our US government couldn't afford it? Oh wait, they can't, but that doesn't seem to be stopping them, does it?
The purpose of the American dream wasn't to create a thousand times more freedom, to create one thousand times more wealth, so that the US government would have a thousand times more power, to abuse the people a thousand times worse than any other country in history. That wasn't the point, but that is where we are going. Maybe not as fast a Russia, but when we get there, it will be worse.
Where does the invasion of privacy end? I'll give you a hint . . . it doesn't end. The US government has been becoming destructive to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness for quite some time now.
How do we define the point in time, when we have slipped over the precipice? When the the President has never read the Constitution? When the IRS can come to your house for any reason and throw you in jail? When you can be called a terrorist, and the government can come take you away without telling anyone why or how long they will keep you? When you have to pay more of your income to the government than you get to keep yourself? When you can't protest without a permit? When businesses are required to hire people based on race? When the congress no longer listens to the people? When all businesses are nationalized? When?
