Have you considered the fact that you not only booked one way tickets, but that you also had luggage that tested positive for explosive residue?

It is a hassle, but these are exactly the conditions that they are trained to look out for. BTW, carrying a perfectly legal gun would be the perfect cover for explosive residue, hiding a bomb elsewhere in your luggage.

Do you mean like in the pocket of my purse designed to carry a concealed weapon? That would seem like such an obvious thing to look for.
