TSA Body Scanners To Show Less Revealing Images

tgtanman writes "The Washington Post reports that the TSA will begin installing new software on millimeter wave body scanners at 41 airports that will replace the controversial body images with generic images of the body. While the change is currently limited to millimeter wave scanners, similar upgrades for backscatter scanners is being developed, according to the TSA. The ACLU has applauded the changes but continues to note other concerns with the scanners."

  1. TSA "Cancer Coffins" by Dr.Bob,DC · · Score: -1, Troll


    If you travel by air in the US, never EVER go through those scanners the TSA runs. Insist on a pat-down then get out of the area as fast as possible.

    Those scanners spew microwave and other radiation which pools up in the area effectively soaking people in the radiactivity. Working in that melange of microwave and backscatter radioactivity is sure to cause nerve damage and subluxations in people. Left untreated, those subluxations and nerve blockages will go rancid and cause all sorts of health issues: headache, back spasms, heart disease and even cancer.

    There was an issue not long ago in the Journal of Vertebral Subluxation Research which showed a definite link between exposure to these types of radiation and chronic health issues. If you work in the security field near these "Cancer Coffins" or are exposed to them more than a few times per year, it's imperative that you have your spine and nervous system examined by a Chiropractor. They're trained to detect and treat the issue. Make sure you tell the Doctor that you're there for radiation exposure and he/she will know exactly where to look for subluxation issues.

    Take care,
    Bob.
