If you were Kippie and had the choice of admitting that or deflecting attention to liquids, which would you choose?

Traveling out of GGG the other day (the only commercial traffic there is three American Eagle flights daily), I noticed a TSO doing a bag check on a toddler's backpack. The kid looked to be about two or three.
The TSO finds a round can-looking container of children's toothpaste in the backpack and says, "This is too big!" Those guys are thorough.
So mom and dad are given the choice of taking it to the car or tossing it. They agree to tossing it.
I feel much safer now.

Now, a question to TSA employees who post here. Do you ever just look the other way when you find something like that, or would you get in big trouble from Kipland?
