The TSA’s new crime fighting tool: Precognition

August 17, 2006 by in Tech with 6 Comments

The Transportation Security Administration has been experimenting with a new anti-terror program: screening passengers’ faces for ‘evil intent.’

This is not a new concept, the TSA is taking this page from Israeli airport security. Dedicated agents will not look for bombs, guns or knives. Instead, the assignment is to find anyone with evil intent.

What is evil intent? Basically the agents look for telltale facial feature, and the approach and question the passenger who is emoting ‘odd’ behaviors.

    Which one of these faces would constitute ‘evil intent’? Seems to be a load of crap.

    this seems like something out of that one Tom Cruise movie… where they arrest people before murders happen… 15 years, we will be living in the Matrix ;)

    Isn’t this profiling, and isn’t profiling considered evil?

    In the morning of any flight, I eat copious amounts of pork products, then when checking in I ask if there are any Muslims on the plane I’m going to board. Then I talk about all the pork I ate and how this pork will mix with their bodies should the infidels destroy the plane.

    hehehe none of them will make it to their heaven if I’m on board.
