this should be a poll.

Yes I believe they went to far. No I'm not a nipple ring person per say, but I believe we need our rights back.

making her remove them after confirming what they were is just ridiculous.

on the other hand. I also believe. if you know you have something on you that will draw attention and make a hold up. shame on you.

That is to going to far.

I wonder if they are going to start doing that with the "down there" piercings too

I will agree that the TSA people royally screwed up on this one, but I also think she was unconscionably stupid for not realizing that they would be an issue.

Lets just say I went through security last year with some jewelry and had no torubles. Of course, they probably took 1 look at me and said hell with it, I dont need to see that.

I have piercing, other than my ears, and I have never had to remove them when I have flown. I think the TSA person was just being a jerk, and wanted to look at the woman. I see him getting fired.

Or quietly transferred somewhere else. However I don't think you'll see TSA ever apologizing for this or even admitting any wrong doing.
