Areas of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport were evacuated Tuesday afternoon when a bomb-sniffing dog reacted to a piece of luggage.
Around 2 p.m., the dog indicated the possible presence of explosive material in a bag coming off one of the baggage carousels on the baggage claim level.
Well, thank God they got the bag after it had been in an airplane storage hold for an entire flight.

Any bets on how long it will be before someone says what we need is more scanners, more pat downs, no liquids at all, and now socks have to come off and be on the belt or in the bin?

Security theater, folks.
