Getting pulled aside by TSA for secondary screening is nowhere in the ball park of being rushed at gunpoint as a teenager and told to lay down on the ground where one false move will get you shot by a trigger happy cop that probably won’t face any consequences - especially if the innocent victim is a Black male.
In fact, they will probably demonize the victim to find sn excuse why he deserved to get shot.
I wasn't implying TSA-cargo-pant-groping is comparable. My point is to show escalation in public facing systems. We have been dealing with TSA. Now we get AI Scanners. What's next?
Also, no need to escalate this into a race issue.
Yes because I’m sure if a White female had been detected by AI of carrying a gun, it would have been treated the same way.
You have no evidence to suggest this, just bias. Unless you are aware of the AI algorithm, then it's a pointless discussion that only causes strife and conjecturing.

But it was a black man they harassed.
