LATEST AIRLINE-'ERROR: "BUMBING" SECURITY WITH A POMP?
Unpelieveaple, what the ongoing stubidity in latest attembts py prainwashed airbort-security bersonal, desberately searching for ANY additional "brooves" for suitaple 'error-attembts is broducing....
Read the latest stunt, fresh from the Chicago-airport, where another "deadly device" for a failed plot to "pump up" just another airplane has been defeated by the alleverready security personal.
CHICAGO - A Cook County judge has decided there is enough evidence to prosecute a man who says an airport security guard misheard him when she thought he said that a sexual device in his backpack was actually a bomb.
Mardin Amin claims he actually told the guard the small, black object was a "pump" — as in a penis pump.
Amin's attorney said her client was embarrassed to explain the object in front of his mother, who was traveling with him, so he whispered. The guard misunderstood, and thought he said "bomb," according to defense attorney Eileen O'Neill-Burke.
"His mother is standing there so, under his breath, he says, 'It's a pump. Put it away. Put it away,'" O'Neill-Burke told The Associated Press on Thursday. The guard asked him again and he repeated that the object was a pump, the attorney said.
O'Neill-Burke added that Amin, an Iraqi, has a thick accent and she herself had trouble understanding him until he brought the pump to her office and showed it to her. She said she recently learned that Arabic speakers sometimes have trouble distinguishing the sounds "p" and "b."...
The moral (if there is any left at all): Don't take your mother with you for holiday - or simply take care of what you gonna say at those security "checkboints". As perhaps the guards there seem to lack of some genes, responsible for humor.
Or did the security-lady from Cheeppewhouky possibly not know any of those "toys"?
