Nipple rings causin mayhem! i'm so glad this hasn't happen to me yet
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23830845/ Screening handled properly, airport concluded
She was taken behind a curtain and managed to remove one bar-shaped piercing but had trouble with the second, a ring. "Still crying, she informed the TSA officer that she could not remove it without the help of pliers, and the officer gave a pair to her," said Hamlin's attorney, Gloria Allred, reading from a letter she sent Thursday to the director of the TSA's Office of Civil Rights and Liberties. Allred is a well-known Los Angeles lawyer who often represents high-profile claims. Applying pliers to the torso of a mannequin that had a peach-colored bra with the rings on it, Hamlin showed reporters at the news conference how she took off the second ring. She said she heard male TSA agents snickering as she took out the ring. She was scanned again and was allowed to board even though she still was wearing a belly button ring. | |

People are going through with wedding bands on and you want me to play with my tits? How you gonna let some high school drop out with a GED scan you to the point where you are removing nipple piercings? I woulda lied and told him I had a pacemaker or something...screw that....

I'd raise some hell if I was her. Like was said above, peoplg go through with wedding rings and shit on without a problem. Or for that matter, earrings and other piercings. Hate to sound alarmist, but this smells like another case of overzealous guards harassing women. Remember the story about the breastfeeding woman who was made to prove she was lactating by squeezing her boobs at the guards? "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |
