airport full-body scanners in the Netherlands

The Netherlands doesnt even use it for metal detecting. its only used for drug detecting on their 100% drug control flights ( ie flights from south america ).
the use of these scanners is degrading, especially when a specific group is being targetted with it ( south americans ).

Last year The Netherlnds also had a pregnant woman from south america strip down because she was a suspected of being a cocaine smuggler. they did vaginal research ... found out the woman was not a drug smuggler but they did enough research to make the woman have a miscarriage and lose her baby during the stripsearch/vaginal research.

this is degrading, discriminative and just down right crossing human rights boundries.
