That would be logical. Remember, however, we are talking about TSA here.
So, if you have a bomb in your bag, then we ask what is in your bag. You state that it is a cuckoo clock from your mother. Am I just to assume it is okay although there are some components in the clock that closely resemble an explosive?
I cannot see the logic there.
