The Blazing Burrito
Repercussions of the Underwear Bomber

I scary thought I’ve had recently.

Terrorists were going to smuggle liquid explosives onto airplanes using toiletry containers and/or water bottles. In response, the TSA banned liquids from being taken onto airplanes.

A terrorist was hiding bombs in his shoes. In response, the TSA now makes us remove our shoes before boarding an airplane.

Now a terrorist was hiding explosives in his underwear. Given the two examples above, I don’t think I’m looking forward to flying in the near future.

(but just between you and me, I would prefer to go commando)
