Guns have no place in an airport or on an airplane. I'm not a gun owner, but I know many responsible gun owners. They're good people and I doubt they would bring a gun to an airport. However, even if they did, there should be consequences.

The person may be good, with no ill intentions, but we don't need people taking guns on-board through security. I'm sure people have made honest mistakes and gotten guns through security as well -- good people making mistakes.

However, the bottom line is guns don't belong in aiports or airplanes. If caught, there must be consequences. I'm not saying charge one with terrorism and throw away the key, but we would have to re-evaluate how responsible one is as a gun owner if they forget and take a gun to the airport.
