That's what a woman found out at the Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. Officials say she was stopped Sunday at a security checkpoint with a pair of gun-shaped stiletto heels.
TSA spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein says the stilettos had heels in the shape of handguns and faux bullets around the sole. They were in the woman's carry-on luggage, along with bracelets lined in faux bullets.
The agency prohibits passengers from carrying "replica guns or ammunition" through airport security checkpoints.

Well played!
Are you really as stupid as the woman who put that in her carryon instead of checked baggage?
Those are really ugly, even though the thought is provoking.
Heck, when I was in high school I got called out by the teacher for chewing gum. I hate gum. I was not chewing but she made me change my seat anyway. Sometimes teachers are just plain wrong.
I once made sure to take one of those large packs of gum, and the teacher was very irked when told yes,I DID bring enough for everyone!!!
Lawdy. She needs to ne issued a ‘fashion citation’. Talk about ‘hooker heels’.
A pair of shoes?
REALLY?
Do you have any conception at all, whatsoever, of how weapons look and operate and the fundamental physical processes underlying their operation? I can’t believe anyone with an IQ higher than room temperature would think those shoes were a threat.
I agree they are ugly, but they are obviously non-threatening. The appropriate TSA response would have been, “Gentleman, on the main stage, put your hands together for TAWNY...”
Test? You are kidding right?
I think I saw this movie... Starring Rose McGowan as I recall...
Sometimes the obvious is just that........sheesh!
"The woman tried to check the items, but ended up leaving them with the TSA in order to catch her flight."
Eww gross
How does she pull the trigger?
Not everyone wants to pay $25 so the airline can lose their checked bag
LOL!!!
Really? Really?
Dopes leftist idiocy know no bounds? Where was the person with alick of common sense when theis happened?
Really?
They did their job. And no, I’m not being sarcastic.
Will they stop you for a “Guns & Ammo” magazine?
There’s scary pictures of guns in those magazines!!!
