How about deploying the millimeter wave radar/thermal imaging cameras that basically strip the clothes away from your body and instantly reveal what you're carrying underneath? THESE ALREADY EXIST! No need for touchy feely pat downs, much faster to process people through (About 1 person per SECOND) and the software can even be programmed to blur or fuzz areas of the body for modesty reasons. The combination of thermal imaging and low level radiation detection will INSTANTLY reveal a gun like or knife like object.
It works. It works well. And there aren't any deployed anywhere in the States. Why the heck not?</font>
Privacy Advocates shot that one down. There is one at MCO that is used on a voluntary basis. People just don't trust things that can "see" through their clothes.
