Airport embarrassment could lead to jail

CHICAGO, Aug. 23 (UPI) -- A man who panicked out of embarrassment when asked about a suspicious object in his luggage at Chicago's O'Hare airport and said "bomb" could go to jail.

Mardin Azad Amin made a preliminary appearance in court Wednesday, charged with felony disorderly conduct as a result of the Aug. 16 incident in which he was too embarrassed to tell airport screeners the suspicious object was part of a penis pump.

Twice when asked to identify the grenade-shaped device on the X-ray screen, Amin replied "a bomb," the Chicago Sun-Times reported Wednesday.

The 29-year-old Amin later told investigators his mother was standing nearby and he didn't want her to hear what it really was, the report said.

The charge carries a possible prison sentence of three years, prosecutors said.

Is said device for increasing the size of the matter I presume?

Stupid and vain it would seem. Very dangerous combination. Look for him in a future edtion of the Darwin Awards registry.

[Yo-Yo]

I know just the judge to hear this case...

[laterldf]

Wonder if this guy is related to (Okla) State Judge Donald Thompson, doing 4 years "hard" time for having/using a penis pump whilst holding court and trying cases. And no smart remarks about insufficient evidence, not holding up in court, or limpwristed justice :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

He really probably did say "Bong"

[RSmithOpt]

Me too.....he got 4 years in OK for 'not paying attention in court even though he showed up'.

You can bet the Muzzie was making a test run with the device.

Ummmmm.... I REALLY REALLY doubt anyone would make a terror testrun with a penis pump...

[wildbill]

Maybe it was an acronym like: Bedazzling Ortho-Member Bonus.

There's probably lots of acronyms out there in Freeper land.

I always knew they'd use our sex devices against us.

[areafiftyone]

Well it was either take the Pump or his pet camel.

I REALLY REALLY doubt anyone would make a terror testrun with a penis pump...

Maybe he wanted to be ready for his 72 virgins...

[MarineBrat]

A balm? What are you giving him a balm for? It might bite him.

[NeoCaveman]

Not a ping.

[KarlInOhio]

Didn't some woman have to be escorted out to the runway recently to identify and open her luggage because something inside was "buzzing"?

[volunbeer]

LOL

This story is comedy gold.

[flying Elvis]

He did not show aplomb when he said it was a bomb.

[gcruse]

Why is it these innocent tools always seem to have Islamic names?

[BJClinton]

Somebody's rabbit kept going and going...

[RodgerD]

Actually the pump was going to be used over a cabin pressure monitor to simulate a decompression incident, triggering deployment of the cabin and flight deck oxygen masks, and tricking the pilot to start a descent.

In the ensuing panic, another terrorist, armed with condoms and a vibrator....

These old fashion pumps sure seem to be popular in the news stories lately.
