Big Sis promised the naked scanner images would not be stored…
…Big Sis lied.
Gizmodo reported today that 35,000 naked scanner images were stored in a Florida Courthouse.
At the heart of the controversy over “body scanners” is a promise: The images of our naked bodies will never be public. U.S. Marshals in a Florida Federal courthouse saved 35,000 images on their scanner. These are those images.
A Gizmodo investigation has revealed 100 of the photographs saved by the Gen 2 millimeter wave scanner from Brijot Imaging Systems, Inc., obtained by a FOIA request after it was recently revealed that U.S. Marshals operating the machine in the Orlando, Florida courthouse had improperly-perhaps illegally-saved images of the scans of public servants and private citizens.

No surprise here. As I recall, when this issue first came up “Big Sis” did admit they were building a database. . . . .

As I’ve heard of the thousands of “saved” scans, I hadn’t a clue that the unscanned person is also clearly seen. This is insane and outrageous.

CNSNews.com has reported that Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) — which is frequently tied to domestic terror plots — has been guaranteed that TSA officials will only pat down Muslim women in the head and neck area. CAIR said Muslims who object to full-body scans for religious reasons should know their rights if they are required to undergo a pat-down, including asking for the procedure to be done in a private place. In addition, CAIR offered a “special recommendation” for Muslim women who wear a hijab, telling them they should tell the TSA officer that they may be searched only around the head and neck.
“Before you are patted down, you should remind the TSA officer that they are only supposed to pat down the area in question, in this scenario, your head and neck. They SHOULD NOT subject you to a full-body or partial-body pat-down.”

Janet Napolitano must be fired. Either that or she has to walk the scanner and have it broadcasted on the most watched news network – you know who that is.
Jim commented:
Ah, but here’s the real question: can you be arrested for exposing yourself to a TSA agent at the airport?

This is outrageous.

Are the TSA screeners getting off on these images?

The fact that our borders weren’t zipped tight on 9/12 should have been a pretty good sign that our “representatives” in Washington were incapable of winning this battle. But then the central battle isn’t with the Mohammedans anyway, it’s with these tyrants in government (at all levels). If people can’t see that now, with Uncle Sam’s hand not only in their wallet, but “on their junk,” than America is no longer the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And don’t give me this pathetic whine of, well we don’t have any choice if we are going to be safe. BULLSH!T. That is the cry of a slave. That’s the same as whining about our economy……oh we can’t create any jobs. NO, they don’t WANT to create any jobs (get government out of our life and you will have no problem creating jobs). We are being f*cking put to sleep by the powers that be. And that includes the idiots at F*cks News. WAKE UP AMERICA!

If a muslim woman wearing hijab is not to be searched, why are nuns being patted down? Why are small children being molested?
This is outrageous.
I will not be flying in the near future until this outrage against all our citizens is stopped

Seems weird that they have 35,000 images and they keep showing just a dozen or two.
