Consequence of shifting carry-on luggage to checked luggage for aircraft weight

Looks like a nudist travel club, happy smiling faces. Not
our security idea at all.

It would certainly help, if suicide bombers would be required to register
after a first conviction.....or what's left of them.

How do you "stand by" the X-ray machine with check baggage?
If you claim it has a firearm locked inside it must be
checked baggage.

Maybe it depends upon what airport you're flying through, but the ones
that I fly through have the TSA x-ray and sniffer machines either
right near the ticket counter or at least very close... This is
different than the machines that you go through for your carry-on
luggage...

Can't carry a firearm in the City of Chicago.

Regardless of the fact of why someone would want to go to such a
place, it still doesn't matter... What you would be declaring as a
'firearm' would not be considered a firearm by even the most fervent
anti-2nd-Amendment socialist wacko... It's only because the TSA has
refused to define 'firearm' that you can thus claim that you must
declare these parts as a 'firearm' because they won't specify where
'gun parts' actually become a 'firearm'... If they'll clarify it so
that if the parts do not consitute a working firearm, I'll happily
quit locking my suitcase, but until then, I will take advantage of
this loophole...

Advance registration should be required. A law such as that
would allow the liberals to declare the problem solved and
we could bury our heads in the sand again.

such as is already required when entering the US of A? IIRC, the
customs-card you have to fill out on the plane before landing contains a
question, which in essence comes down to "are you or have you been involved
in terrorist activities? - [ ] yes [ ] no" (I don't remember the exact
wording). Now that's a big relief, isn't it, if those with "yes" ticked are
refused entry at customs, there is only the terrorists already living in the
US of A left that need to be dealt with. Maybe if every resident is also
required to answer that question we can just jail those that ticked "yes"
and indeed declare the problem solved :-)

Friedrich

Honest citizens can't carry a firearm in Chicago. The gang

not just the gun laws either.

Does Chicago have any honest citizens left?

Used to have just one, but I married her and took her to California.

Glad to hear that you rescued her!

Matt

It was a charter flight, not scheduled 121 carrier, so of course they are having fun!
