They'd better confiscate laptops too. They're more dense than bricks can do lots of damage when smashed against someone's head. What about those innocent looking power cables? They can be used to strangle!!! USB cords can as well. We can't allow them on board, can we? All these acts can be perpetrated by humans! We never can be too safe. We'd better not let them on the plane either. THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!
