Did they ever put themselves though one of those?

yep that is my point it is not for Homeland security it is for big corp, the GOV and any one else that is ready to make a buck off the sheepole, you have no rights and that is what they are pushing for, any terrorist that wants to kill will kill, and blowing up a plane is just not there any more, it is a "horse and phony" show, they will make you feel safe at the same time make you the threat, nad they are doing a good job at it.

I'm always for the push of technology. I absolutely love what the creative and intelligent minds around the world come up with. Humans are pretty cool when you peel away the religious fanaticism, war, greed, violence, and Glenn Beck.
- However, this is a dam waste of money. The idea has some weight, but at a cost that high it had better dam well yield some results. Sounds like something I would see on Criminal Minds. Matter of fact I think I did see that.

In that regard, perhaps it is preventing some terrorism?
