are we willing to accept that walking into an airport means we give up rights that are granted to street bugs. wright believes that airline passengers believe better than that. this issue is particularly galling for members who have served their country. for example, required air force officer received a background investigation security clearance for 17 years and was again granted a top secret clearance a contractor after his retirement is outraged that his government now considers him a potential terrorists. another member, a retired u.s. navy senior chief who served in the military assistance command special operations group and then held a q. clearance in the nuclear weapons industry for many years feel deeply betrayed by his government the same reason. there must be a better way. what might some of those better ways via? the sacraments keynote speaker is going to address that very issue. we addressed it really in the air when they started deploying body scanners. we believe that canine are very effective method for detecting explosives and there were many, many possible methods that could have b
