| Gun Discovery Results In Shut Down Of Two Terminals At Baltimore Airport |
| 2006-09-23 |
| (AHN) - On Friday, security officials discovered a gun in a carry-on bag at a security checkpoint at Baltimore-Washington International Airport. The discovery then prompted authorities to shut down two of the airports terminals. A spokeswoman for the Transportation Security Administration told Reuters that the gun was discovered shortly before 7 am, after it failed to make it through the screening. After the closure of terminals A and B, passengers were then brought out for re-screening. The gun has since been handed over to the law enforcement officials. |

| #7 So who owned the carry on bag? Who owned the gun? No mention made in the story of anyone arrested. Odd. |

| #5 After a brief struggle, TSA security officials manage to wrestle the gun to the ground... Is this one of those "See, we're relevant" stories? |

| #4 I blame this tragedy on the Bush Administration's brutal slashing of social programs for disadvantaged firearms. If only they had kept the indoor ranges open at night and the outdoor ranges well lit, this would never have happened. It is perfectly understandable that young firearms would be enraged at the discrmination they face daily from the Man. Corrupt politicians seeking to disenfranchise undocumented handguns, city cops demanding licenses which you have to pay to get, and white middle class oppressors who discriminate against Blue or Matte finishes .... is it any wonder that these young guns shoot off? |

| #1 Good grief. They should just pistolwhip the moron until his face is shredded and then shoot him and his entire party. Take maybe 10 minutes. Then everyone could be on their way and the number of potential repeat incidents would drop like a rock. |
