Further Body Scan Discussion


I always love reading the different opinions behind the body scanners, and I have found yet another. Blogger Conor Fridersdorf highlights a portion of the conversation between two other bloggers and TSA boss John Pistole.

Friedersdorf follows the argument and speaks his own opinion; that a terrorist attack could potentially happen anywhere, yet we don't safe-guard those places like we do their airport.  For example, someone could bring an underwear bomb to a crowded market, but that doesn't mean that police officers frisk every person entering the market. Friedersdorf believes that we should take our chances, and use the least invasive security procedures as possible.
