Detained by TSA for design on purse

[carsontech]

Wow, I haven't flown on a plane in a LONG time, but the next time I do, it looks like I'm going to be detained for a while. I have pro-gun, anti-Fed, anti-ATF, and anti-TSA badges and stickers on all my bags.

This is ridiculous:

"She was like, 'This is a federal offense because it's in the shape of a gun,'" Gibbs said. "I'm like, 'But it's a design on a purse. How is it a federal offense?'"

I agree, that's ridiculous.
I think they hot on it because it appears to be a medallion rather than beaded or embroidered, but still. Maybe I should make sure to bring along my little mini glock key chain next time I fly and see what they say LOL
