I believe there is a Youtube video somewhere that shows exactly how easy it is to get stuff past these useless machines.
Not to mention the TSA's own Red Team which, if memory serves, managed to get a gun past one of those machines 5 different times (@ DFW, I believe).
Then there is the matter of the sky-high false+ rate which the Irish Dept of Prisons only took 3 mos to figure out & dump the machines.
Seems the only ones who don't get how useless these things are is the TSA & the scientists doing this study.
Plus, of course, in a pinch the determined tewwowist could simply get a job w/either an airport vendor or, even more easy, the TSA itself & then be able to bring just about anything thru the checkpoint w/no worries.
