Bad Combination: Nipple Rings and Airport Security

See, I would have just removed the nipple rings at home where I had the proper tools to do so instead of getting into a potential situation like this.

At the same time, I wonder how you deal with the situation. You can't just say "those things setting off the alarm? Those are my nipple rings" and expect a TSA agent to believe you. I mean, it's their JOB to not take your word for anything.

So what're they going to do? Look down the woman's shirt to confirm it was indeed her nipple rings? That would be a whole new lawsuit.

I don't think this kind of KILL KILL KILL attitude in court is necessary at all, though. I mean jesus, Allred? Give me a break.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I was just sayin', man. The woman would have probably cried foul if she had to have a guy pat down her boobs, too.

'Cause aren't there usually female TSA people around anyways in case of this kind of circumstance? I would be more comfortable with that.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In my experience, it varies. When I was flying out of Hartford a few months ago, there was one woman and maybe a dozen men on staff at the gate. The woman wasn't doing the pat downs, but I was only there for a few minutes so I can't say for certain. No one really needed a pat down while I was standing there.

When I flew out of Vegas and San Jose, there seemed to be an equal amount of employees at the gates. Maybe there's a variant when it comes to size of airport. =/

Skills, that's not very nice. You have hurt my precious feelings. ;_;

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
