Well, I think it is imperative to get the word out at least to parents, young adults and pregnant women as fast as possible. It is irresponsible to X-Ray kids and pregnant women when they can "opt-out".
TSA is putting these scanners as PRIMARY screening in many airports, and one needs to be "AWARE" and "ASSERTIVE" to opt-out. Most people don't even understand the radiation or the privacy concerns. The media tells us this will keep airplanes from falling out of the sky. When was the last successful airplane bombing? People are just sheep and parading themselves and their kids through these things without thinking but believing it will "make them safer" - Nothing could be further from the truth - can you say collateral damage?
TSA says they equate to 2 minutes of air time, but this is PURE BULLSH**, as you & I know that cosmic rays are not the same as x-rays, as most cosmic rays pass cleanly through us without interaction. The same goes for high voltage x-rays. Low voltage x-rays, however, are nearly 100% absorbed, except for a small percentage being backscattered.
I have been posting my concerns wherever I can, but I think we need more high-level support. TSA could cause thousands of cancers before something is done - and they won't surface for years!
At least the intelligent people will preserve their genes for future generations. This appears to be a large scale Darwin awards project. Survival of the smartest!
I put warning pamphlets in my office to enlighten people about this. I will publish it publicly soon, but an looking for the widest possible exposure.
Remember to OPT-OUT!^
Tell everyone to OPT-OUT!^
