TSA finds another gun at DSM Airport

The whole chambered rounds thing plus all of the little conceal handguns without traditional safeties goes a long way to explaining all of the accidental shootings you read about. Everything from adults shooting themselves to kids and toddlers doing it. I grew up in an era where everything had either a mechanical safety or a hammer.
People are freaking dumb and should have their right to carry taken away. You damn well knew it was there and were just trying to either A. Stick it to the man if you got it through or B. Too lazy, cheap, etc to travel with it properly. That being said TSA provides a needed security measure but there is an element of it that is security theater. At the same time the practices are fairly standard in developed countries
Nine times out of ten it's an electric razor. But... every once in a while... it's a *****.
Of course, it's company policy never to imply ownership in the event of a *****. We have to use the indefinite article, "a *****", never ... your *****.
I'm going to assume that the *s spell out "tinfoil wrapped cucumber".
Care to buy 20 8x8 boxes of knives, box cutters and multi tools from the Pennsylvania TSA?

Is this where I say "shall not be infringed?" I feel like I should say "shall not be infringed." What if a well regulated militia is needed to keep an overzealous air marshal in check between DSM and ORD?
Yeah real fun when a gun goes off accidentally on a flight and brings the plane down
You bet your ass you can! It is called becoming a pilot and flying yourself 99.9% of places there is no security and never any lines to get on the plane!
He can't do that there are to many regulations and licenses involved.
It doesn't happen because people don't carry on a plane to state the obvious.
It won't happen like it does in the movies, I am aware, but the bullet can hit wiring or fuel which can definitely take a plane down.
If the bullet hits a window there are some pretty serious issues there as well.
No Excuse. However, I did accidently bring an AR15 and a Glock 26 onto Air Force academy base two years ago. MP ask if I had any guns or drugs and since it was Colorado he specifically said "and that includes Marijuana. I said nope. Then drove to the chapel. Bought a new shirt for my kids, went to put it in the trunk and though crap. I have all of the above in this trunk right now. However, when flying I actually check my bags before I leave to make sure I have taken out any guns I might have.
I’m not really arguing for allowing loaded weapons on a plane, but when the topic of safety comes up, I think the scenarios in favor (of safety) get a bit outlandish.
