If their procedures didn't preclude this event from occurring, there's no reason to take any comfort from a policy change in this festering cesspool.

/O for a handful of Democratic congresspersons with spines!

Hope I never need an artificial hip, pulling that out for the TSA would be a biatch.

But the terrorists could have bombs surgically implanted in their breasts and use piercings to hide them from metal detectors.

/my penis is an explosive device

No, but by Jeebus, that woman was... whew.

The FCC disagrees.

this is what the founding fathers fought for

Now I have J. Geils "Concealed Weapons" in my head.
I haven't thought of that song in 25 yrs.

Confident women have been using their nipples as dangerous weapons since the bra-burning 1960s.

/weapon tester

submitter: "The last time that I checked a nipple was not a dangerous weapon."

The last time I checked, a bottle of water was also not a dangerous weapon. But try and take one of those through a checkpoint and see what happens.

Before one of the several TSA goons I know about on Fark comes in here to defend that stupid rule -- I know I can take water past the checkpoint if it's <= 3.4 oz, and I don't care. That's not the point. Liquid limits/bans improving security is a myth that has been debunked many, many times, and so is the assertion that few screeners have attitude problems.

The way all the jebus freaks lost it when janey jackson's popped out, you would think they had anthrax in them.

Oh an FTR, at this point having had to suffer at the hands of teh imperialistic and draconian stupidity that is the TSA, nayone pulling anything out on a flight an threatening a passenger is going to get a beat down by some frustrated travellers.
I propose a new law. Once you are no loner predident, you must fly COACH anywhere you want to fly. If they have a seat inbetween a smelly obese person and a squirmy kid, it's reserved for you.

vudukungfu: The way all the jebus freaks lost it when janey jackson's popped out, you would think they had anthrax in them.

Oh no, its much worse than that. Nipples cause arousal and Fundies hate that because you don't give two shiats about religion when sex is involved.

Mine could put your eye out.

Fluff Girl: Mine could put your eye out.

This requires photographic proof.

I have a whole lot of metal in my leg and I never set off the detectors.

PC LOAD LETTER: I have a whole lot of metal in my leg and I never set off the detectors.

I've never really gotten the point of liquid bans - the TSA doesn't have any effective screening process for peroxide based explosives anyway, other than possibly a trained dog (they have a distinct 'aroma'). They don't have to be in fluid form to work.

FWK.

Flying While Klassy.

Thank gawd, I can fly now woot!

/im an outdated attention whore!

That's a woman!?

Psychotropic: But the terrorists could have bombs surgically implanted in their breasts and use piercings to hide them from metal detectors.

That's not what I've heard, but go on telling yourself that.

Well, this will be the last time I go to the airport with Prince Albert.

If there is any evidence America is on a crash course with the future Mike Judge foresaw in Idiocracy, it's this.

Furthermore, our economy is simply going to collapse further as people find it harder and harder to travel, the costs and inconveniences being what they are. And yet the government will continue to borrow from China to pay the high school dropouts that are federal employees, people we all hate and yet are too stupid to understand work for us.

"The last time that I checked a nipple was not a dangerous weapon."

I can attest to the fact that they CAN be. One time, after a walk on a cold day, she nearly took out BOTH my eyes and half an ear!

*looks down shirt*

.. I don't think I could even knock someone's eye out. Given, I don't have nipple piercings, but still. I wouldn't consider boobs a weapon.

I guess if they were large enough, you could smother someone. But someone breaking into a cockpit to boob-smother a pilot is a pretty big stretch don't you think?

when coming back from vegas a few months back i was randomly selected for additional screening. the tsa agent asked if i was carying any liquids with me. i replied, "only in my bladder".

unless you have extra time to kill at the airport, i do not suggest you use that line.

I hate the TSA. Every time I fly, it's the same damn thing: they want me to remove the metal retainer that's cemented into my mouth. And every time I try to explain to them that it's cemented in, they ask if it's removable.

CEMENT IS NOT REMOVABLE ON COMMAND!!!

/heh, I could just imagine a pr0n where someone hijacks a plane with a pair of nipples

skinink: Well, this will be the last time I go to the airport with Prince Albert.

*Shudder*

You'll put your eye out.

Tell em what you think (new window) But i don't think "YOU ARE ALL FULL OF EPIC FAIL" is ever paid attention to.

I love the related slideshows. The first one is "Real or Fake" and the second one is "Famous Twins" with a thumbnail of Scarlett Johansson

FTFA:
The statement stopped short of apologizing to Hamlin.

Translation: We did nothing wrong, ...
But... we are gonna change the way we do things anyways.

I guess as soon as you say you are sorry a lawsuit is a slam dunk or soemthing?

The truth is that the TSA has an on-going contest to see which of them can get away with the most outrageous BS.

/The 2007 winner was the dumbfark that forced a woman to drink her own breast milk.

"The last time that I checked a nipple was not a dangerous weapon," well-known L.A. attorney Gloria Alred said.

Evidence to the contrary?

/possibly NSFW

If my alcohol soaked brain is remembering correctly, the thing Janet Jackson had on her nipple looked like a Ninja throwing star.

You don't have to be a high school dropout to be an idiot

"a nipple was not a dangerous weapon"

Has this person ever seen a nude picture of Bai Ling? She could put out an eye with those things

/but what a way to be blinded

Funny, we have (illegal) wiretapping, we have torture, we have redention and this is what people hang their hat on as proof of gov't oppression. We have an administration that is trampling all over the constitution and here is an incident that is in absolutely no way a violation of any "right" which people scream to the high heavens about. We're going to hell in a handcart and people are biatching about the soap.

OK, I've about given up with commenting on fark, because I'm obiously not funny and suck.

However, my fantisy about a woman with nipple rings did not include a 37 year old skank. Ridden hard and put away wet, over and over is my best guess.

At the check point:

TSA: "Ms, you have set off the metal detector. do you know why?

Skank: "I have very large steel piercings in my breasts. Do you wnant to see them?"

TSA: "No, not me." "Hey guys, do any one of you want to check out this lady's breast piercings?" "No." "No way." "Yuck."

Skank: "Come on. You'll get to see my boobies." "Really. take a look."

TSA: "No way man, um, lady."

Skank: "Get a girl to do it. Do it now, with pliers."

TSA: "OK. Hey Brenda, bring the pliers, we gots a job for you."

Skank: "Oh, ow, ow. Baby, baby, that hurts so good! Twist it again."

Grrr: /O for a handful of Democratic congresspersons with spines Intelligence & common sense!
