This is the 'fruits' of the events of what occurred on 9/11. 'Never Forget!' While I do not buy into the line our government gave us, many who were around and in power during 9/11 have all 'profited' greatly as a result of an event that cost many lives. But that doesn't stop 'evil people' from making a buck off the loss of their own countryman.
The person responsible in great part to these techniques as we're told were due to the 'underware bomber.' Yet if you look into the story, you'll learn that this was a young man who was barely capable of doing very much. He was 'mentally challenged.' He was also spotted by an American passenger as having been boarded on the very plane he intended to 'blow up' with the aid of a US government agent.
As a result, a former Homeland Security Director who just so happened to have had connections with a tech company that we now know as those menacing 'scanners' people walk through to board airplanes was introduced upon traveller's throughout America and around the world.
Michael Chertoff, former head of Homeland Security (click link for details) is the man who introduced these annoying 'screening devices.' This was in addition to yet another organization, TSA which was another group charged with 'keeping Americans safe,' at the expense of our freedoms. While other countries who've dealt with terrorism on a greater scale use other methods that are less evasive, such as 'profiling,' and it has worked flawlessly, Americans have been subjected to being 'guilty before being proven innocent,' in many ways.
This is no longer the America I once knew. Many tests have been conducted dealing specifically with these machines which are supposed to keep us 'safe,' and in most cases- these devices have failed! So what will be the next attack or even to take away even more of our 'civil right?' I don't even want to know.
Our Founding Fathers knew, as Benjamin Franklin correctly stated 'those who will give up their liberties for safety- deserve neither!' That is how precious our 'civil liberties' were thought of by a group of men who personally dealt with 'tyranny,' and despots.
