Public Service Announcement: DO NOT travel internationally without THOROUGHLY searching your property first!

Why not take personal responsibility and not blame tsa?

Right? People don’t know this already when they travel abroad? TSA & the airlines only warn you about a million times to not bring prohibited stuff in luggage.

I guess that colonizer mindset must be genetic for some people and that means Murica rules over every other nation.

A friend bought his daughter a collapsible baton for self defense when she was at OU. Years later she went to the airport in NYC and that baton was in a carry on bag and got her arrested and charged with a felony. She had forgotten that she even had it and didn't know it was in her bag. TSA could have confiscated it with a warning, but instead she got made an example of. After being jailed, bail, and expensive attorney fees she was given 1 year probation with record to be expunged if she had no other legal issues.

Depending on when she was at ou, it could have been illegal to carry here too.
