Firt, let me apologize, I shouldn't call them "baboons". That is an insult to baboons. I DID quote, to make it clear.

Sweat can trick "mmwave" scanners into thinking you are DANGEROUS!
TSA "creator" says DISMANTLE it, and "make it private". HEY, what it replaced WAS private!
Government ADMITS that xray scanners are STUPID, DANGEROUS, and ILLEGAL and claims a MORONIC LOOPHOLE!*

* WHERE is this loophole for my little testing device, or for the red cross? HELL hypodermic needles are closer to drugs than EITHER of the above, and FREELY available! Diabetic tests are closer than my coagulation tester, and FREELY available.(BOTH require a drop of blood and monitor it. A 50% error on MY machine could be meaningless. A 50% error on a diabetic machine could lead to DEATH! Diabetic results can change a LOT in minutes! MINE changes little in an hour. MY machine is used once a day, a diabetic machine might be used DOZENS!) If they want to give such a MORONIC lie to explain their endangering the public, why don't they make it consistent?

    Sometimes things may be deemed unsafe for reasons which are not apparent. I thought the ban on clear liquids was pretty stupid when it first happened until it was later revealed that there were plots thwarted designed to exploit this security flaw.

      Yeah right(sarc). The security flaw STILL exists! If I wanted to, I could move chlorine bleach and ammonia into the "sterile" environment. HECK, there is likely stuff that is ALREADY there!

      HECK, I HAVE managed to get as much as 40oz of liquid through. CERTAINLY not consistently, or even by intent, but I have. AND, if you fail, you simply throw it away. Nobody could really say what was there. I COULD, by law, get almost a quart through. Of course, if I wanted to get it through RELIABLY, I have about 6 OTHER ways to do it. Another is likely.

      HELL, I can think of 6 ways RIGHT OFF THE TOP! As I was writing this, I came up with ANOTHER! That is 7 ways! ALL using flaws that either HAVE to exist, exist because of their INCREDIBLE carelessness that I have seen at EVERY airport from little tiny FWA to the BIG LAX or LGA! HECK, I have EVEN seen it at reagan and DULLES! Speaking of reagan, the politicians are selfish cowards AND, as such, have made it, at least for a while(as I believe it was finally rescinded) effectively a FELONY to stand up on an airplane within 30 minutes of reagan. I have probably PERSONALLY witnessed that law broken maybe 12 times. Only about 2 times was a warning even given for doing so. They NEVER rerouted the plane, as MANDATED BY LAW! Oh SURE, I have heard of it done a few times, but never on planes I was on! This IN SPITE of the fact that maybe 80%+ of the time they mentioned the rule, at lest that I heard, and punishment for doing so. The punishment was rerouting, and an $11,000 fine. Of course, that could mean civil litigation ALSO, and maybe criminal!
