A letter to parents this week informed them of the new scanner that will allow the school's nearly 1,000 students to move through the lunch line faster and with fewer payment mistakes -- an issue that had arisen in the past, KPLC-TV reports. While the letter notes that parents can opt their children out of the program, parent Mamie Sonnier told KPLC-TV that she was angry and disappointed by the program, as the scanner violates her beliefs. She contends that if the scanners actually make it to the school cafeteria, she'll be transferring her kids to another school.

This whole thing would be pulled faster than a hawaiin on a pig cookin for 12 hours. Think about it, Lysol has managed to market a HANDS FREE hand sanitizer. So what if you touch the "icky germs" on the soap pump.... YOURE ABOUT TO SANITIZE YOUR HANDS. |

| KoFFee_ (OP) User ID: 1373078 United States08/20/2012 01:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are biometric ID tools evil? Fingerprint readers, iris scanners, palm vein scanners, facial recognition systems and more -- biometric ID tools are going mainstream. But will the mainstream go biometric? When school officials sent out a letter announcing the program, some parents freaked out. The parents had concerns centering around the belief that all forms of biometric ID constitute what the Christian Bible calls "the mark of the beast." Wait, what? Here's what it says in Revelation 13:15-18: "And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, OR the name of the beast, or the number of his name ... and his number is six hundred threescore and six." Opposition to biometric ID is pretty widespread, and most of that opposition is based not on prophecy, but on concerns about privacy. A Senate hearing last month revealed the U.S. government's own concerns about the use of facial-recognition technology, both by government law enforcement agencies and private companies like Facebook. Europe is broadly resisting Facebook's facial recognition initiative, especially Germany.

I am sure they didn't pay for it. Quoting: IllumiNaughty This article mentions the cost of each one, so I'm assuming they did purchase it: Florida's Pinellas Schools were the first to adopt the technology last year, where the implementation was opposed on the grounds of funding. Each scanner costs approximately $3,500, though officials say the system will save thousands in unpaid lunch fees.
