Baywatch Babe Targeted For Naked Body Scan
Video - Baywatch actress Donna D'Errico - Dec. 8, 2010
I've been following TSA stories closely for about 8 weeks now, and D'errico is right. Based on published reports, TSA screeners are showing a pattern of targeting attractive women for naked body scans.

I hand-picked the best 25 from a few hundred. They are in no particular order.
I spent a few hours putting this together, so your clicking is appreciated.

But the sexually-charged pat downs are not “basic screening” in most of the world, and indeed have sparked a growing outcry from opponents in the United States, though officials maintain that the policy won’t change no matter how much popular opposition there is.

Fears Mount on TSA Body Scanners
By PAM MARTENS
Over the past month, in the face of unprecedented airport screening procedures that left human dignity, radiation concerns, privacy and the Constitution in shambles on the tarmac, Americans have been repeatedly counseled by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) that the new body scanner machines and humiliating pat downs are necessary to make air travel secure. Now documents have emerged, on the government’s own web sites, raising questions as to whether the machines are little more than overpriced metal detectors with a “beam me up Scotty” futuristic design.
A scientist associated with one of the body scanner manufacturers, Ronald J. Hughes, has submitted patent documents to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for various devices involved in airport screening of passengers to detect terrorist threats. In those documents, Mr. Hughes details serious failings of the x-ray body scanning equipment, including its lack of reliability to detect plastics or ceramics used in bomb making.
Mr. Hughes is not just any inventor. His patents have been regularly assigned to Rapiscan Systems, Inc., one of the companies which currently has over 200 body scanners in airports throughout the U.S.
The problems are explained as follows in Mr. Hughes’ patent documents. While metal objects (like guns and knives) can be easily visualized in the body scanner images, there is “poor detection capability for a wide range of dangerous objects composed of low atomic number elements, such as plastics or ceramics, which are often masked by the low atomic number elements which comprise the human body.”

a development from friday afternoon...
If you are worried about being blown up in the air ..... just consider that DHS REFUSES to seal the Mexican border, and ANTI-AIRCRAFT ROCKETS can be carried just as easily as bundles of drugs. Terrorists can walk across just as easily as MAIDS, COOKS, GARDENERS, or NANNYS. SO, After you have been groped, had your 4 ounces of shampoo stolen, your luggage looted ..... you buckle up and as you lift off ............. WHAM-BAM-BOOM!!!!! THEN you will wish they had SEALED that Mexican border.
QUESTION: There are MANY "puddle jump" regional airports that will never have enough passengers to justify a scanner. Is EVERY passenger boarding in those airports getting the "intrusive" patdown? if not ...... WHY NOT?! If these scanners are SOOOoooo important, They SHOULD BE. If the scanners are SO necessary, and there is NO scanner, then EVERYONE at those regional airports should be getting the FULL INTRUSIVE patdown. ........ if not ...... WHY NOT?!
Your naked image can be on the internet before you have even stepped out of the scanner..
"I just point, and shoot, and post to facebook" that is how fast that nice TSA can use his camera phone to expose you to the world.
question ..... Does anyone know any other precedent where untrained personnel are using xray equipment on human subjects?
If, as according to Janet Napolitano, diplomats "...have to subject themselves to the same 'basic screening' as everyone else", why not Members of CONGRESS?!? Why not Tim Geithner?!? Why not Janet Napolitano, who REFUSED to be the first volunteer at the the installation of one of the new full body scanners?!?
Oh, I forgot: Some animals are more equal than others.
agreed...he was awful in this clip...bad jokes..then he repeated them...
