Lewd Comment From A Security Guard Performing A Body Scan

'I love those gigantic t**s

www. thesun.co.uk

A HEATHROW security man was quizzed by police after ogling a girl colleague "naked" in a new anti-terror body scanner.

Jo Margetson, 29, reported John Laker, 25, after he took her picture with the X-ray gadget and made a lewd comment.

The pervy guard leered and told her: "I love those gigantic t**s."

These stupid and ridiculous x-ray machines are getting out of hand. In this article they state this was the first problem they had with these machines... however I recall several other threads/articles relating to this very subject, including a child, and some actor (forget who and from what country) having his picture actually printed out, and he actually autographed it.

This really should be banned. These machines are insanely inhumane. I honestly could care less about my body being exposed [TO PEOPLE I KNOW ARE LOOKING] because I am very open with myself - but who knows WHO is looking at me, because I sure as hell don't know!

This guy is obviously just some a**hole - if he saw the girls boobs okay, but to make a remark about them to her is just degrading to her and I can understand how she must have felt.

I hope this woman can take some legal action.
This is appalling.
How freakin gross is that.
peace

I am too shy to ever use them, I couldn't bring myself to do it. To me, and I know this sounds dramatic, it would be a feeling of being raped in a little way. There's this moment when your at the doctor and you just kind of have to let go and let your towel drop, maybe picture your not really there, give up your control, and this is how I'd feel.

He needs to be fired YESTERDAY and be arrested and charged. I see no difference in this then if a co-worker using a shoe mirror to see your giblets or pulling up your shirt.

They are totally out of hand, I agree with you, but I wouldn't mind being seen naked if it would save me from being blown up by some nutcase.

I think it should be computer run or something rather than a bunch of guys getting off to women and possibly kids.

She accidentally walked into the photography area and he managed to fire off a quick one (fnarr!)?

How did she manage to accidentally walk into that area - it's a friggin' airport with queues (especially in Blighty) and tickets needing required.

Sounds suspect to me.

Is there any way you wear something that could reflect these rays and damage the machines?

Considering carrying an explosive onto a plane is the LEAST efficient (and viable) way to blow a plane up? Wellll, I seriously doubt you'll ever be under any real threat of dying via terrorist action while flying in said plane.
That is unless you're the would be terrorist which means you'll probably loose either 1. Your foot, 2. Your sack (down there) or 3. Maybe a breast (based on the propaganda boobie bombs).

But your opinion is EXACTLY what the PTB are counting on to continue this appalling full body scanning BS!

So, you ask - What's full-body scanning for then???

TO GET YOU TO SUBMIT VOLUNTARILY - and get you used to becoming compliant - even happy to do it on your own terms.

Remember the old (make me want to puke) saying: It's a privilege to fly, no one's forcing you to do it.' (How freaking sick is that!)
Well LA-DE-DAH here's where the games begin.

Ok, I'll stop now before I really get mad.

peace

I completely agree, she should take legal action. If anything it should be a charge of sexual harassment.

However the article says nothing about this happening - the only thing going on is the man in question being fired. You'd think the airport would at least pay the girl off so she doesn't start some sort of legal battle... never know, maybe they gave her some money to hush up about it?

Either way I hope this guy gets what he deserves.

You don't think if you're working at their terminals that you may step through the x-ray scanners daily? I can see it very easy to walk through accidentally especially since the lady worked there...?

It's not like she announced "HEY EVERYONE TAKE NUDE PICS OF ME!!!"

The guy in question simply took advantage of the situation. Like I said he could have simply looked at the picture and got off in his own mind too it (which is still messed up), but instead he had to print out the picture and make the remark which is the title of this thread.

Edit to add... how come you can print these pictures out anyway??? Is there actually a printer there to do this, or are these people printing pictures out sending them remotely to a nearby printer source?

I understand your frustration, but I just don't care because I rarely fly.

If you really feel violated and mind being seen naked, then go ahead and be pissed.

I get the whole big brother thing but all they're doing is looking at you naked, I'm very comfortable with my body, after all a large majority of us have a nude pic on the net.

I don't believe that there's a huge gov conspiracy to look at us naked.

Is anyone honestly surprised?

Who do you they hire for these body scanners and gropings to see what you have?

Pedophiles and Perverts, and no I'm not kidding.

Do you? I don't... wtf would you upload that? We all aren't that desperate.

Are you serious? Just because you rarely fly, and don't care about your body being seen because you obviously do some amateur porn with your lovers and post it online, doesn't mean people who are sensitive to their bodies being googled at are in the wrong here.

And who are you to say a large majority of people have a nude picture on the internet? Speak for yourself, not everyone else!

EH?

I used to (until now) consider myself a pretty literate person when it came to all things net but evidently I'm not.

A large majority??

I'm not against you (in fact I'm all for it) but where in the world wide web do people put naked pictures of themselves in such a casual knowledge fashion?

I know of cuckolds, doggers, pornographic models, Libby Hoeller and a few others but I've had to look for them to know about them. I didn't even know what a cameltoe was until a couple of years ago.

So, in the spirit of the net: Pics or it didn't happen.

I love gigantic t**s as well but, these body scanners have a specific purpose and what this worker took advantage of is very irresponsible. We could all see this type of behavior from a mile away when word got out about these scanners. Couldn't there be some way to filter out the persons body and strictly focus on the dangerous objects that may be picked up? Like, instead of the full image just show the weapon or explosive? Give the software a contrast between flesh/bone and metal/plastic/foreign material; There has to be a way to do that. That option would be a win win situation. Forgive me if this is impossible but at least I'm thinking...

reply to post by patent98310


It's not impossible, it would be very easy to implicate something like what you're saying - and no I'm no able to view the software they use but I'm fairly certain this would be very easy to do.

There are also much more practical ways of finding bombs/explosive devices. There are scanners that can detect explosive material, I don't understand why they don't just use those 'sniffer machines' to snuff out those who may be carrying some sort of explosive. But hey, why not make it easier and let our nude bodies be seen by who knows, and let them print and look at/get off too our pictures later? Heck, why let them wait, now they can just get off to our pictures sitting in their seat while looking at the scanners... it's like live soft core porn for them honestly.

Maybe you should get down for your pedestal and re-read the tripe your posting.

I too couldn't care if I'm seen naked. I'm not ashamed. And that doesn't mean I'm doing "amateur porn".

The fact you assume because someone isn't as self-conscious as you means they're acting in porn films AND have multiple lovers is really, really poor.

reply to post by m0r1arty


yeah you'd love that huh

I don't actually, but you guys are making into some kind of elaborate conspiracy. Yeah it's wrong and it's a violation to some , I don't know the specifics, but it shouldn't be mandatory and you shouldn't be able to print the pics up.

The day it becomes mandatory is the day I'll start caring.

Wait a minute.
The operators are in another room right? This article is a hoax.
All the news stories I've read say the operator that sees the naked pictures is in another room and he can't see you, and you can't see him.
They just push a button and signal the scanner guard to let you pass through.
It is safe, right?
I mean.... it's only sensible.... the passengers are taking the smallest hits to their dignity, thus ensuring the airlines don't take the biggest hits to their planes
