I've done my fair share of traveling, most of it post 9-11. I found myself with free time and extra cash. I side with Cynthetiq on this matter. The TSA may well be jack booted thugs but for the most part from my experience they treat everyone the same. I find it difficult in these times someone would try to board a plane and not expect problems when passing through the metal detectors with large piercings. I haven't been stopped once in at least two years. Shoe off, lap top out, belt off, coat off,watch and change in the bin and no liquids at all.
I watched her this morning with her attorney (who didn't see that coming?) and I wondered what kind of attitude she had when questioned. I went through the TSA at Ft. Lauderdale one time and the lady in front of me refused to take her shoes off. I think her exact quote was "Don't you know who I am? These shoe's are Italian!" I didn't know who she was and couldn't have cared less where her shoes were made. Last I saw of her she was headed behind a white screen and a TSA worker was putting on gloves, didn't look like fun.
I wonder if the TSA is going to be releasing a video showing her throwing a hissy fit in the near future? Wasn't a few months back some lady claimed she was harassed about breast milk and a video basically shot down most if not all of her accusations?
I think she should have removed them at home prior to leaving for the airport.
