Mandi Hamlin was forced by the TSA to remove her nipple rings before boarding a flight in February. This is according to the staff-written GoGirlfriend.com article "Mandi Hamlin, TSA and Nipple Rings - What's Going On?" where she has demanded an apology from TSA via her lawyer Gloria Allred because of the nipple rings incident. Mandi Hamlin claims the TSA agents were rude and laughed at her as she removed her nipple rings and the government agency has issued a statement saying they are "actively investigating" this incident.

My Unique and Extraordinary Experience With TSA

I myself have a had a unique and extraordinary experience with TSA officials just like Mandi Hamlin reportedly did, though mine wasn't humiliating nor over nipple rings. This occurred several years ago in 2004, when I was coming back home from Houston, Texas. I used to carry a bathroom scale with me on my travels because I wanted to make sure I was keeping an eye on my weight. When people travel, they do often gain weight and exercise less because their daily routines are thrown off where they might not exercise as much and eat more during their travels. I found that when I took a bathroom scale with me, that I am more watchful of my weight and make sure that I exercise as much as possible.

Well, I didn't bring enough things on my trip to have to check any baggage, so I carried on everything I took with me for my journey, including the bathroom scale. Here's where this thing turns rather comical. My bag goes through the X-ray machine, and there's a concern with something in the bag. It turns out to be my bathroom scale that has little fish designs. At first, they didn't know what was until I told them.
