TSA's Warped Reality

I was pretty filled with outrage when I read this story yesterday. But I wasn’t really sure what to write about it since I want to focus more on actual current events than my own opinions which are carelessly interjected anyway.

Apparently, I was not the only one irked by the TSA’s blatant disregard for this woman’s rights. Although they still stand by the statement that the security guards followed procedure, they did admit today that the existing procedure needs to be updated.

What I don’t get is, the TSA admits that passengers with piercings have the option of a pat-down in lieu of removing the jewelry. Coincidentally, she only had to remove her nipple rings, and not her belly ring, how odd.
