Apparently no one else will start this one, so I will. Seems that TSA made a female passenger remove two nipple rings, NOT in private, before she could board a flight, but let her on still wearing a bellybutton ring. What's with that???

Just checked on cnn.com, no story like that (usually they are the first to post stories like that)... do you have a url?
FYI: This is the wrong way to get someone's phone number!!!!!

Read about this yesterday. Good to know TSA has not stopped screwing around with their charges. We can sleep well tonight.

Here you go Kris. Nipple rings Personally I wouldn't want my nipples pierced (or anything else for that matter), but that's just me.  BTW, the Woman that had them is NOT at all attractive (read beat ugly) not that it matters.  I could tell some stories but I won't. Not Pierced, Blitz

Personally, I think the TSA went way the hell overboard on this one.
one time my parents were taking my children, niece and nephew to florida for a vacation.. they made my mother remove my disabled son's back and leg braces so they could check them.. the only metal on the braces are small d-rings for the straps. the rest of the brace is a solid plastic. i mean just looking at him you can tell why he needs the braces.

Thanks for the url...
TSA did go overboard. No two ways about this. Wonder if anything will happen to the TSA employee's?

In this world of "political" correctness (ooops. Scratch that word!!!! Scratch it!! I didn;t mean it!), the inability to "profile" passengers makes everyone look like idiots. An airline flight is not a consitutional "right".....it's a priveledge. I say profile and leave innocent people alone.
