Summary
TSA officers at Los Angeles International Airport stopped a traveler carrying 82 fireworks, 3 knives, 2 replica firearms, and pepper spray on a Philadelphia-bound flight on Dec. 15.
The discovery shocked TSA staff, prompting officials to remind travelers to thoroughly check their bags for prohibited items, especially during the busy holiday season.
It remains unclear if the woman was arrested or barred from her flight.
TSA emphasized the importance of following security guidelines to avoid delays and safety concerns at airports.
Really, a bottle-opener shaped like a gun so small a toddler would have trouble holding it counts as a “firearm replica”?
Also the tiny box of firecrackers as “82 FIREWORKS”
It’s basically cop drug bust math
But if you held all 82 of them in your hand and let them off you might end up with a missing finger … Nail.
I’m kidding kids… don’t eat fireworks.
Probably better to not allow these, then accidentally allow a real one which someone thought was a replica.
You’d probably do more damage with the bottle opener than with a working gun that size.
Idk they make some tiny single shot 22s.
Still way too big for that size gun.
GUnS bAD! RuN AWay!
Yeah shouldn’t be carrying that stuff in a carry on. Do have to wonder why she thought it would be ok?
Would love to hear her side of it.
