Responding to Obama on Body Scanners
Link: http://www.aclu.org/blog/national-security-technology-and-liberty/responding-obama-body-scanners
In his remarks yesterday President Obama seemed to address some of our arguments for why mass deployment of body scanners is a bad idea. Announcing the administration’s unfortunate embrace of the scanners, Obama paused to note: Now, there is, of course, no foolproof solution. As we develop new screening technologies and procedures, our adversaries will seek new ways to evade them, as was shown by the Christmas attack. In the never-ending race to protect our country, we have to stay one step ahead of a nimble adversary. That's what these steps are designed to do. And we will continue to work with Congress to ensure that our intelligence, homeland security, and law enforcement communities have the resources they need to keep the American people safe.
