Sorry, but I don't particularly want a stranger operating a machine

These people should be on the sex offenders register, not hailed as the

Oh dear.

I agree with Marc, I do NOT want some low paid bloke looking at my, my
wife's or my children's skin outline. If these people are anything like
your average low paid civil servant (who I have worked with) or a security
guard watching CCTV monitors, I *know* full well they will be laughing
their arses off like monkeys at anything remotely amusing. Possibly
keeping a few images for the Christmas party too.

It is quite possible that there will be a few perverts getting oddly
inspired jollies from it too.

Your wife got nice tits? Now you can share them with the guards.
Got a beer gut or a big arse? Then cheer up some people you don't know
with a cheap laugh. Your daughter hot? Well...

Sorry for the crudity but it is a salient point!

And Ross is correct IMO, this is money wasted. The terrorists will just
blow up something else somewhere else. More coppers on the ground would be
a far better use of resources, because when they're not looking out for
nutters, they'll be nicking chavs who damage trains, or busting
pickpockets.

How did we get through decades or IRA bombing without this nonsense? We
should all be dead by now.
