Perhaps the best way to kill off the thugs known as the TSA is to educate them about the on the job dangers. Cause not only do they have to worry about someone retaliating over touching their junk, they now have to worry about increasing their chances of cancer--as do frequent fliers. It appears the naked body scanners the government deemed as safe aren't even close to being safe.
Your chances of getting cancer are on the increase if you wear the TSA thug uniform. From the American Thinker.
Fearful of provoking further public resistance to naked airport body scanners, the TSA has been caught covering up a surge in cases of TSA workers developing cancer as a result of their close proximity to radiation-firing devices, perhaps the most shocking revelation to emerge from the latest FOIA documents obtained by the Electronic Privacy Information Center.
After Union representatives in Boston discovered a "cancer cluster" amongst TSA workers linked with radiation from the body scanners, the TSA sought to downplay the matter and refused to issue employees with dosimeters to measure levels of exposure. The documents indicate how, "A large number of workers have been falling victim to cancer, strokes and heart disease."
As we reported yesterday, newly released internal government documents, obtained via the Freedom Of Information Act by the Electronic Privacy Information Center, reveal that the TSA, and specifically the head of the Department of Homeland Security, "publicly mischaracterized" the findings of the National Institute of Standards and Technology, in stating that NIST had positively confirmed the safety of full body scanners in tests.
In erroneously citing both NIST and the Johns Hopkins School of medicine to claim that the body scanners are safe, the TSA has also deliberately misled the public on the dangers posed by the devices.
Documents obtained by EPIC show that, far from affirming their safety, NIST warned that airport screeners should avoid standing next to full body scanners in order to keep exposure to harmful radiation "as low as reasonably achievable."
Further documents illustrate how a Johns Hopkins study actually revealed that radiation zones around body scanners could exceed the "General Public Dose Limit," contradicting repeated claims by the TSA that Johns Hopkins had validated the safety of the devices.
So becoming a government pig working at the TSA has serious health risks. Perhaps all of you TSA thugs should walk off the job today and sue the federal government for lying to you about the safety of the naked body scanners. Perhaps a class action suit designed to bankrupt the manufacturers of the naked body scanners wouldn't be a bad idea either.
