Someone called 911, but this man’s maple instrument wasn’t a gun. It was a bassoon.

A bassoon is an assault oboe.

Ha! I play the oboe and completely agree.

You guys are cracking me up. Your life expectancy in an Islamic country would be a few minutes at most.

Also the Hardart, the left-handed sewer flute, and more. A seriously twisted individual.

That's a Tiberian rocket launcher from the planet Democratigula. They need to be banned immediately. Those struck by the missile simply F**k themselves to death. Very dangerous.

Did it hit Laz?

Don’t know what it is, call it a gun. Fingers in what some call the “shape” of a gun, call it a gun. Poptart half eaten, call it a gun. Man says “got any gum?”, call cops. Man walking with a photo tripod, call cops about man with submachine gun.

The collective insanity is getting worse.

I was in DFW airport once upon a time, with a tenor saxophone in a flight case. Someone actually asked me, 'Is that a gun?'

I said no, something much more dangerous. A saxophone.

The bassoon is the heavy gun (real gun), the oboe is the firearm/handgun.

I helped an elderly Chinese gent at an airport security check. He was trying to carry on an expensive tonearm for a record player. The screener didn’t know what it was and the old gent didn’t speak English. A good tonearm can cost several thousand $. I just saw a complete high-end Clearaudio turntable with an upgraded tonearm offered for $52,000.
