Airline Security by Spartanburg Herald Journal Reports– I’ve heard a lot about flight restrictions and the problems the Transportation Security Administration has had with notorious criminals such as actress Celia Weston trying to “smuggle” pimento cheese onto a plane. I recently encountered problems with flight security at Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport concerning my National Rifle Association silver bullet key chain — a key chain that had already made the same trip through half a dozen security checkpoints. The only difference this time was that I was in a bit of a hurry and forgot to place my keys in the tray, which triggered the alarm when I went through the gate. One security guard rifled through my pockets and pulled out my keys. As if he had stumbled across King Tut’s treasure, he gasped and said it looked like a 50-caliber bullet! You would have thought he had just captured Osama bin Laden. No matter that it had “NRA” and “Charlton Heston” inscribed on the side and had a quarter-inch hole drilled through the middle of the clearly single die cast. “We are just like the FBI,” he said to me — which I doubt, but in the event that they are, this would go a long way in explaining why we have yet to capture the elusive Osama. From the looks of things, it’s obvious to me that they’re never going to catch the real terrorists. Instead, they seem content with harassing and haranguing the citizens of this nation, and the only thing they are likely to succeed in is destroying the Constitution of the United States of America. It begs the question: Just whose side are these guys on, anyway?
