[ RadSafe ] Backscatter x-ray

[Rees, Brian G]

OK... now, if ANY of those weapons could be connected to any sort of danger, a plot, or the potential to have a plot that could affect airline or passanger safety you can be your next paycheck that TSA, DHS, the White House, and various Congress persons would have had press conferences... so we're back to behavioural screening and evaluation... a major part of what EL AL has been doing for decades... sucessfully... 

Maybe people were going to use the drugs to get over the screening. 

And, I'm sure that Fox News is only concerned with heroines if they're the wrong political persuasion or nationality...

(Obviously) My own personal opinion

"This year alone, the use of advanced imaging technology has led to the detection of over 130 prohibited, illegal or dangerous items," TSA spokesman Greg Soule told FoxNews.com. The TSA would not disclose exactly what those items were, but it said they included weapons like ceramic knives and various drugs -- including a syringe filled with heroine hidden in a passenger's underwear."

Seriously, those "syringes filled with heroine" are super dangerous.  You ought to see what trouble those heroes in syringes come up with.

Thanks,
