UPDATE: You Can Bring Hidden Daggers to the Airport But Not Fake Bullet Belts

If anyone recalls, the first time I’d flown in a long time was mid 2009. The very nice but totally wrong TSA agent at Richmond International Airport confiscated my pink bullet belt (available from the terrorist costume outlet Hot Topic) because bullets were a “replica weapon,” which are not allowed on American flights. I repeat: fake bullets grommeted to a pink canvas belt, looped into my pants. I’m crying in the airport carrying an Eeyore I used as a pillow and this guy wants to confiscate my lame Hot Topic belt because its (likely plastic) fake bullets “replicate” a weapon. Who am I going to threaten with the fake bullets firmly attached to what is holding up my pants?
Whatever. I let him toss it in the trash. It’s not worth getting violated (I had been on vacation, I’d spent days doing that anyway) over a cheap ass belt. It was an awesome belt. My pants slipped down my ass all the way home once I made it back to San Francisco. Dickhead.
Anyway. What happened to the wanna-be ninja shlepping daggers to Reagan Airport in a ninja book? Finally, we know.
WUSA reports there are no plans to file charges, since investigators determined the passenger was not a security threat.
SO, to recap. Jr Deputy Accountant was a security threat in her ridiculous pink bullet belt but a guy who tried to board a flight to Chicago with smuggled daggers in a hollowed-out book from the airport at the heart of the nation’s capital? Totally fine.
FUCK TSA.
