In this article Many Not Bothered by TSA Scanners "Don't touch my junk!" is what protesters are saying. This is a growing movement against the Transportation Security Administration new security screening measure. On Wednesday a group of protesters were protesting the body scanners and the up close personal pat downs outside of the airport. The protesters held up signs that showed porno scanners and read " Don't touch my junk!" Austin Bergstrom International Airport does not have scanners but this group want it to stay that way. It was part of something that was happening across the nation, encouraging people to opt out of going throughout the scanners. We spoke to some passengers who say, "They think going through the body scanners is no big deal."
However most passengers that spoke to FOX 7 did not have a problem with additional security.
"It was a body scanner. I mean I don't have a problem with it came up, put your hands over your head and go through, Wes Foster, a passenger arriving at the Austin Bergstrom International Airport said.
The group plans to plans to protest again before Christmas on December 18th. However, the time it will be in the airport.
Everyone has their own opinion on the full body scanners some don't mind and some thinks it violates people's rights, but some people think it won't do any good to have full body scanners. "In my opinion if they do get the full body scanners wouldn't stop anyone from doing anything terrible because someone is going to try to come up with a way to get around the system of the full body scanners". For this story I'm not going to agree nor disagree about the body scanners we as people have to just see how the security of the full body scanners will protect passengers if they decide to get the full body scanners at the airport. I have no problem with the way existing scanners are being used.
