LMAO...Can you imagine that guy in your picture actually running through an airport? I wonder how far he would make it before being tackled?

Chris! ARG!

Don't you know that looking at pictures of Hillary can make a man sterile?

Lumberjack, I was wondering the same thing. Thanks for asking. :) These people are not only evil, but incredibly stupid. I guess we have something to thank public schools for, eh? ;)

a non-functioning explosive which resembles an M-80 firecracker

So basically he was arrested for trying to board an aircraft carrying a toilet paper tube?

Oh, the humanity...

Inert explosives are designed to kill dead people. This can have a negative impact on a major Democrat voting bloc.

That doesn't look like an M-80 firecracker.

Perhaps this is a government test to make sure that the Federal screeners are doing their job right.

Who in the name of Holy Moly would ever try to smuggle explosives through the one place in the entire country where they are actively looking for people smuggling explosives?!?

Lets just be thankful that these people don't posess the common sense that God saw fit to bestow on a sack of grapefruit.

Or as dumb as voluntarily allowing a policeman to search your vechicle knowing you have contraband in it. But it happens all the time.

Of course refusing to allow them to search the car is probable cause enough for them to impound it and THEN get a search warrent on such grounds.

Guess he thought the law against explosives didn't apply to himself--

If it was inert, then it wasn't an explosive. Hopefully they won't hold the guy. I can see taking him into custody until the inertness was determined, but after that, what would be the charge?

Surely not. Impotent yes, but sterile?

I read it was a non functioning M80 firecracker. How does that get to be called a bomb? Maybe if it was C4?
