Why doesn't the TSA use dogs trained to sniff out explosives? (article)

Didn't know if I should post this here or in the news forums so here it is.
Friday, November 26, 2010 Why doesn't the TSA use dogs trained to sniff out explosives? "a dog can detect dynamite through dirty diapers, or C4 through smelly socks. Whether providing explosives sweeps for a large venue or a smaller security detail, bomb dogs are more economical and effective than other methods of searching. Here are several reasons:"(link to source article is below)
* Speed -- Dogs can check faster by smell than an Xray machine operator by sight. * Instant results -- They detect target odors "in real time" -- no waiting for lab results. * Mobility -- Dogs can check out large areas faster than any other method. * Versatility -- Explosive detection dogs can detect a wide variety of substances. * Precision -- Dogs can discriminate between very similar chemical compounds. * Focused -- Dogs can detect target odors in an environment so full of odors that electronic sensors may be compromised. * Ability to Find Source -- Only dogs can track chemical vapor to its exact source. No instrumental device is presently capable of doing this. * Fewer Breakdowns -- Dogs don't have mechanical failures and can quickly be replaced should the dog be ill or not want to work. * No power source required -- Dogs don't require electricity and can work in areas where power is unavailable. * Adaptable -- Dogs can check items and areas that won't fit in an Xray machine.
For military patrols throughout the world, a bomb sniffing dog can mean the difference between life and death. These "dogs of war" have saved countless lives and their record for finding hidden explosives has won them a loyal following. The soldiers trust these dogs more than metal detectors and mine sweepers. Back on the home front, using bomb dogs reduces unnecessary evacuations. Dogs can check out suspicious packages, avoiding the need to call in a bomb squad (unless explosives are found) and reducing expensive company "down time."
Just think no more radiation,no more molestation. The dogs would ensure our safety,our Constitutional rights would be protected. So why is this not an option?
An article on NPR states that bomb sniffing dogs are deployed to Afghanistan. They save lives by detecting explosives from homemade bombs. This is a simple but extremely effective solution for TSA. Dogs can be trained to detect any kind of explosive. TSA touches your junk because of the CIA sponsored underwear bomber. If the underwear bomber had been sniffed by a dog with an explosive trained sniffer..NONE of that trash would ever have happened. Perhaps that is the point. It is very difficult to have false flag mini operations that continue the 9/11 terrorism regime agenda lies.....If the dog's nose can just simply put a stop to it. It's time to bring in the dogs.

do you know what dogs charge per hour though. its asinine! i read an article that bomb dogs charge 3lbs of kibble, 2 cats(preferably kittens), and 10 min's of head scratching per hour. thats not worth actually finding bombs.

Yeah, I'm not sure our government could swing that. Seems a little steep.

Actually the reason they don't use em is cause supposedly some of the new explosives smell like other things that are legal. Hair spray or who knows what. Same reason I use to be able to pour a lb of shrooms in a box and ship em with hardly shutting the baggie. Hell one time I just put them in the box with no baggie. Shrooms supposedly smell like about a million different food items.

I didn't either use to wrap em like buds when I ship those but as soon as I found out from a friend that works at the post office I just started dumping them in a plain freezer bag then in the box. Never had a problem. One time was out of bags and the guy really wanted the shrooms bad so he said take the chance and pour em in the box so I did and they made it from the west coast to the east coast.
Stopped growing shrooms so I haven't tested it in a few years.

That's crazy. Apparently 5-0 isn't that worried about shrooms.
Ya'll hear that? Dogs can't smell drugs

Stupid dogs. If they were in charge, everyone would be on shrooms all the time and no one would be able to fly anywhere.
