Pliers for Flyers

I heard about a woman, I believe she lives in Texas, who now hired a big name lawyer, to sue an airline. Was she ticked she couldn't get peanuts? Or because the only movie they were showing was a Martin Lawrence film.

Nope. It's because she had nipple piercings. And, when the she tried to go thru security, alarms were buzzing. I immediately thought of a funny Saturday Night Live skit, where Phil Hartman, David Spade, and Adam Sandler pretended to have the buzzer go off as Cindy Crawford was walking thru. She ended up stripping down to her underwear.

This woman asked if she could just show a female employee. They said no. She had to "remove all jewelry."

Now, I'm willing to bet, had a woman employee just checked her out, she'd now be suing about that, saying she felt "violated."

I bet this same woman, would agree with the DMV, when they made certain Muslims take off their head dress for photos. Hey, if they don't like it, they don't need to get a drivers license. If she didn't like this, she couldn't refused to board the plane.

I gave a cigar smoking friend of mine, a fancy lighter and some cigars, for Christmas. He then was taking them on a flight to Florida, and they confiscated the lighter.

I was flying to New York, and had toothpaste and contact lense clear confiscated from me. Hey, 9/11 changed a lot of things.

I just hope that the airline security counter sues. And, they get their court fees back, and TSA can claim their reputation was hurt.

And, for this woman that claimed some of the male employees were laughing as she pulled the piercings out with pliers....hey, can you blame them? That's some funny stuff.
