Somebody needs to lose their job.
This airport search topic btw is a hot spot for me. I was in Dublin Ireland when 911 occurred. Even though I'm Canadian my flight back was to JFK. We got stuck in Dublin for three days. At JFK the security guards did a divide and conquer then "confiscated" most of my gifts. Did you know that a gold ring with a black opal was a security risk?
Turns out airport security is subcontracted at most North American airports. They hire guards with a grade two education because they can pay them six dollars an hour. The execs are making a killing but only because there are no industry standards and no training requirements. It's the McDonald's of security.
No wonder the poor women got stiffed. I read she even volunteered to let them search her physically. She asked for a female agent first but apparently the female agent declined. She said would have even let a man search her instead of removing them but they never offered, just demanded she remove them.
Airport security is a joke. Unfortunately in this case a bad one.
Gee tech... guess you have not checked my profile or been to Canada recently. Up here a woman is allowed to removed her shirt on a hot summers day. It's a legal right. You know the old if a man can do it why can't a woman do it concept.
As to the in - out concept. Well..... Repetition makes for perfection
how do you check out someones profile?
Never heard of that, or any provinces, that would allow that. Tech and I have a lot of friends from there, we'll ask around.
It's a little known legal precedent set in Toronto by a woman who argued successfully that on a hot summer day a man can take off his shirt in public to cool down. Why can't a woman? She was charged with indecent exposure and presented the argument based on equal rights. She won.
As to my profile my apologies. I was thinking of my BIO. It says Canadian. To get to that you have to go to Authors, then select a letter. BIOS are shown then.
So just her case was won, but the indecent exposure law was never changed, right?
Damn thats why I took mine out before we left SA
I would have freaked out if that happened to me!!!
Specially due to the fact that mommy dearest didnt know that I had it done!!
It would have ended so badly!!!
We're all just fine armyman.
Too bad it wasn't a clit ring.
Damn. I feel late to the party. This would've been a good second post.
The story must be false since it's on FoxNews, right? And anything with Gloria Allred should throw up red flags.
Seriously TSA is a joke. I haven't flown in years and have no intention. ONe of those numbnuts would grope me or my kid and I'd mouth off and end up detained for 48 hours. Then put on the no-fly list and the FBI"s most wanted. This is the problem with asking government to do everything in our lives for us, do all our thinking. Common sense has been so lost that we think nipple rings are going to cause an airplane to drop out of the sky. Funny that the belly ring was allowed to stay.
This is absolutely nothing more than some nerdy, popular wannabe from high school on a power trip. Showing all the world how important he is. Giving these morons proves that power corrupts. Backed by government they have no fear.
When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser. Socrates I have the same problem when i past every damn security door cos of my belly buttuon piercing...
