I can't believe this hasn't happened yet, too many people willing to be violated for the sake of feeling safe.

I'm with you two on this one. One of the stupidest things I've ever had happen to me was to have my nail clipper set confiscated by TSA some years ago, when I was traveling on official orders going overseas. They wouldn't let me through because the clippers had that little nail file attached to it. And its not like I had the time to argue about it, either. Uncle Sam says get on the plane, you get on the plane. It was a very small thing, true, but it still irritates me to this day. I'm going overseas on military orders and they take my nail clippers...like I'm some sort of threat. My disgust with that organization is sizable.
