Closing Sentence:

As you can see, our points prove that the TSA Scanners should be removed and that they shouldn't be used anymore because of all the risks and cases of it. The Scanners have not always been used for good reasons either. That is why they should remove them.

The scanners slow down everyone because every scan takes approximately 2 - 3 minutes but the old metal detectors only took 5 seconds.

Well even though the scanners dont produce that much radiation, they still need to buy dosimeters to measure the radiation just to make sure so that wastes money.

Even though the scanners in the airport don't produce that much radiation, the officers still need to buy a dosimeter for every single person to make sure that they are safe from radiation.

2 Officers have been fired for groping a passenger that looked attractive to them by changing the gender on the scanner so that the scanner believes that the passenger is holding weapons. After they changed the gender, they preformed a pat down and groped the passenger.

Also, some officers that find other people pretty sometimes lie about the scan so that they can pat them down and grope them.

Well the TSA Scanners can't always be right because there is only one officer looking at the scans, so if he is bribed or wants to let someone pass with an illegal item, they can. That is why the TSA Scanners aren't always the best results.

Opening Statement:

We will be talking about how the TSA shouldn’t be permitted to use ‘advanced imaging technology’ to peer under passengers’ clothing in search of dangerous items. The TSA shouldn’t be allowed because the TSA Scanners just violate the 4th amendment because the 4th amendment says that people have the right to not be searched. People should have the choice to not be searched and use the metal detectors if they want to. The Scanners can also cause diseases in people such as basal cell carcinoma and cancer.TSA Scanner s are also easily hacked so people can get through them easily with weapons. We will be arguing about these following points in the debate, diseases, hacking, and violation of privacy & the 4th amendment.

They should not babysit people, we are not kids. Some people don't trust the US so they shouldn't be the world power.

If the U.S. would be the worlds police force, then if they start a war with Russia. What would happen? World War 3? Thats why they shouldn't be the worlds police force.

They shouldn't because the United States isn't the worlds babysitter, its just another country. The U.S. should just leave every country to solve its own problems.
