TSA misses loaded gun in bag at LAX
Found on USA Today on Thursday, 27 October 2011
Despite all the extra airport security measures installed since the 2001 terror attacks, federal security officials at Los Angeles International Airport, or LAX, missed a loaded gun inside a checked bag on Sunday, the Los Angeles Times and other news organizations are reporting.
The .38-caliber handgun fell out of a duffel bag as a luggage ramp crew was loading it onto an Alaska Airlines flight to Portland, Ore., the Times reports.
The TSA is way too busy groping children and old people to search guns in bags.
