Allred Goes Tit-for-Tat with the TSA
Gloria Allred held a press conference today demonstrating how TSA agents forced her client to remove her nipple piercings.
Yeah, it was as ridiculous as it sounds.

My surgeon sent me a card with a picture of the knee joint, and I still have to be thoroughly screened each time I board a commercial airplane. Why is this necessary after done once? Doesn't TSA keep records? I question the ethics of a lot of those TSA screeners?

122. I think the TSA agents in Lubbock were wrong. And no one has mentioned that even after she removed her nipple rings she was allowed to board the plane with a BELLY ring still on...???? Doesn't that just seem stupid?

123. As a professional body piercer and a frequent flyer, I think it's ridiculous. I've never had any problems going through security, and the fact that her piercings were even in question is appalling. If they were that worried about her having some "bomb" or what not in her blouse all they had to do is go into a private room and a female TSA agent ask her to remove her clothing from her torso. It's kinda obvious when you see two piercings hanging there to figure out why she beeped.. It's just disgusting how stupid people can really be.
