TSA detains pregnant teenager

[nissangirl74]

...because of the design on her purse....

"on a flight from Virginia to Florida, Vanessa Gibbs found herself detained by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) over the appearance of her purse.
And just to be clear, it wasn't the content inside the purse that the TSA objected to. No, agency officials took exception with the design of a gun on Gibbs' handbag."

Stupid people, breathing my good g**d**n air.

After TSA agents figured out the gun was a fake,

Whoah...wait...that was something they had to figure out??

[mcbaes72]

Next time, she'll learn to use pics of swords or bombs on her purse only...no guns!

But really, with the holiday travel season here, they're being extra cautious. Still, that's a double facepalm move from TSA employees. Ridiculous!

What does the fact that she's pregnant have to do with anything?

[alms24sebring]

^ I mean really. Maybe it was a sign of what else she wants to put in her mouth for making the mistake of being a prego teen.

Thats good ol Amurika for you.

The Ninja Turtles should try and go through TSA security together. Those weapons on the hoodies are mighty threatening.

I just went through the TSA checkpoints at Ohare on the way over and I have no complaints. I told the dude I wasn't walking through the microwave oven and he said "just get in that line." I had to take my shoes off and run them through the x-ray and walk through a metal detector and that was it. No pat down, no BS, it was like flying back in the day. We will see how I get treated at Washington Dulles on the way out.

Washington will force you to decrease your sperm count going through the microwave oven, or your getting arrested and cavity searched because you have something to hide by refusing.

To hell with sperm. The Chinese are making enough babies for everyone.

Exactly what I was wondering. It's completely irrelevant as to why she was detained, yet mentioned in the title. Whoever came up with the headline should be ashamed.

[Dattebayo]

Perhaps because she was pregnant she didn't want to go through the microwave and the picture of the gun made someone stupid suspicious of her "baby".

TSA is a complete toolshed of an operation anyhow...

We must be reading different statistics. China's birth rate is less than 2 children per couple. By my math, that's a native population decline.

[alms24sebring]

yeah but there are over a billion making babies.

I told this to a friend and he said at one time he had a lighter in the shape of a gun. Now, I would figure that is more of a threat than a simple stitched picture since its metal, heavy, produces fire, and could possibly be mistaken for a real gun. They let him keep it and let him through...

That's a lot of effing babies, bro.

[Encryptshun]

Lot of babies, yes. But necessary to keep their overall population from getting old and eventually causing a population shortage, also yes. We live in a world where natural population thinners don't exist. This is to be expected.

We still have plenty of real estate available.

We will see. I'm not walking through that thing. I might wear something funny like the elephant trunk sexy briefs if they want to get naughty. I don't embarrass and they can kiss my a**, literally.

[Dattebayo]

You could always get them to do a cavity search the next day after you drank a 12er of Beast Ice, beer sh*ts will make any cavity search memorable.

hahaha! I can see that happening. Elephant trunk stripper thong, red hearted panties, or granny/period panties are a must. Bonus points for a hot and full pair of Depends trousers.

I'm not sure what we're talking about anymore.

I'm saying, China is doing plenty of breeding for all of us. Y'all stock up on the Durex and have a good time.

[IBCoupe]

I think Chad's point is that, given the number of people we call "Chinese," they're not even doing enough breeding for themselves.

Seems pertinent:

I think what's lunacy is a nation of SUVs telling a nation of bicycles that they have to change they way they live before we'll agree to do something about greenhouse gases.

Note, we're not the nation of SUV's, though. Not in this conversation. Fertility rate in the US isn't that bad. We're on a sustaining course, mostly.

Fertility Rate in China: 1.54 births per woman.
Fertility Rate in US: 2.06 births per woman.

Man, we've gotten WAY off track from the topic.

I was making an obviously flippant comment about sperm count in response to:

Washington will force you to decrease your sperm count going through the microwave oven, or your getting arrested and cavity searched because you have something to hide by refusing.

What's wrong with you people? Is it cabin fever?

[themadscientist]

you stole my story......

[Encryptshun]

It's obviously sexual frustration, Jesda.

Now let's go make out.

I hate brown people. I don't know about Chad.

[Jesda]

I hate brown people. I don't know about Chad.

I know all about Chad.

[IBCoupe]

In the biblical way; I know you do. That's what spawned my hate of brown people: pure jealousy.
