The TSA kills 20 people per year. Keep the hysteria simple.

Are you willing to kill 20 people per year to keep safe?

It's the TSA agents standing by the machines all day that are first in the fireing line.

I wonder how long the cancers will take to start showing up.

Unfortunately, the answer for most is yes. That's more or less the definition of war.

Edit: Yikes! I'm really getting downvoted here, but no one's saying why. I didn't say I agreed with it! I just said that most people would probably say yes.

Uhh, wouldn't these things not have even caught the underwear bomber? Soo.. would you kill 20 people a year for the false sense of security and safety? If so.. well.. you're a douche nozzle, no offense.
