FLL - "TSA Plunders Boy's Disney Toys"
http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local-b...sney-Toys.html
A choice quote: Edge said she became even angrier when she claims that not long after the TSA officers had confiscated the items, she saw the officers playing with the toy sword and gun. The story does have a happy ending. Disney officials sent Jeremiah replacement toys after they heard about the incident. |

And I am sure that the TSA will take appropriate action against all TSO's involved.:rolleyes:

Where would the TSA bashers be if he hijacked a toy plane with that toy gun???
All kidding aside, this is certainly not new. I had the same thing happen with my son in 1986. We tried to take the unrealistic "Pirates of the Caribbean" wooden gun through MCO security and were stopped. We were told we had to check it. Luckily, our Peoples Express pilot overheard the conversation and was allowed to take for us. He had to keep it in the cockpit and walk us out of the terminal after our arrival in EWR. |
I believe MKT has the appropriate response:
10 PRINT "Bite Me!" 20 GOTO 10 I am interested, however, to see how the TSA blog would address this. In fact, I think I'm going to make a post there now. Mike |

Pfft... I don't even know why this is news. |
If Disney toys are "Realistic Replicas of Firearms" (closest thing on the prohibited items list), then God help you if you have pictures of REAL guns.
Even worse, imagine the consequences of taking video & sound recording of a firearm on board (e.g. most movies). |

So what, the rules should just apply to those without cute little faces and family tragedy? |

Why? This was clearly not the TSA's fault. Stupid people trying to bring toy weapons onto a plane. It is the same reason toy weapons aren't allowed on school campuses. The stupid broad should have put them in their checked baggage. Rules are rules, the fact he has a sad story doesn't make him exempt.
Pfft... I don't even know why this is news. |
