See-Through Security: Molecular scanners to search without consent

The US Department of Homeland Security is developing new laser-based security scanners that can identify any chemical substance in your body - and operate at a range of up to 50 meters. Officials say they'll be used to detect explosives at airports and border crossings. But other experts warn they could identify alcohol, drugs, and even what you had to eat - prompting concern for civil liberties.

Only useful if we can scan those who serve us, politicians, police, etc. I'm all for this

[landers1983]

Here is a valid point, in the hospital they make you wear a lead apron while you get an x-ray, same way in the dental field, this doesn't concern you at all, and your right, you don't have to subject yourself to the x-ray, if you choose not to they just feel you up, and grope you. Another fact, this is nazi Germany, next they will be asking for papers, and also no police don't grab you, but they do on the streets, and search you for their "safety", it's all just another lie to control American's

Ever since Homeland Gestapo began, I've driven everywhere. That's moot, though, in light of these new scanners, which WILL be used in other places. "Becoming" a police state? We ARE a police state. In the state of Georgia, anyone applying for a driver's license has to present his or her old license, a birth certificate, proof of residence, marriage certificate if married, copies of ALL divorce papers and marriage certificates from all previous marriages if divorced and/or remarried, et al.

Politicians don't serve us, they dominate and oppress us.

[MeNotyouxD]

I'm sure the sheep's wouldn't mind getting some more "safety" stuffed up their asses.

[TellTheTruthOnline]

I really hope they use this new scanner with a vibrator so we can all loose our liberty with fun...

WAKE UP !!!!! This is getting worse and worse !!

[ianjohn05]

Can we have a real democracy and let the people vote on what our country buys. These are NOT necessary.

I love 3:04 (PRETEND) ...

[TheKingWrecker]

these scanners belong in washington and the pentagon

[futurequake]

I hear a lot of people talking about what is happening, what they think will be happening. But I haven't heard these people tell us what they, or the military is going to do to combat this rogue and illegal Gestapo. I haven't heard anyone offer up a plan that We The People synchronize our watches to, to Start!

Ill quote the 4th amendment; ''The right of the people to be secure in their persons...against unreasonable searches..''

It CLEARLY says ''unreasonable'', and searches in airports have PLENTY of reason [google how many armed terrorist have been stopped in airports, or better yet watch this video]; /watch?v=jKYkFgMz7fQ

Also; the Constitution applies against the gov., if you come to my house, or a PRIVATE airport, they can search you all they want as long as YOU DECIDE 2 go inside.

[trvth1s]

How does searching you= controlling America? I dont c the connection.

Also; the x-rays that check you at airports are not nearly as powerful as the x-rays in the hospitals.

This is NAZI Germany? USA still has more freedoms then most of the world, so i guess basically ALL of continental Asia, continental south America & most of Europe is also ''nazi germany''.

If you dont want to be checked then dont go to the airport, they dont force you 2 go 2 the airport & b checked.
