Bullets and TSA

[electronman1729]

Something bad happened today to my mother in law.

Last week i went to the shooting range and picked up a bullet i found laying on the ground. When i got home i put it on my work bench and it just sat there. My mother in law has been staying in our second bedroom which is a guest room/ my work room where i clean my guns and build my model air planes. Some time during the week the bullet fell over and rolled into her purse. When she went to the airport the TSA found it when she went through security. She got on the plane, but what is going to be the after math of this? Will the AFT/TSA/FBI be knocking on my door this week?

Thanks
I accept that Iam a dumbass

Nothing will happen except you getting an earful from your Mother In Law.

Only good things will happen..

She'll never want to come visit again!

Nothing. I walked through LAX security with a half dozen rounds of live ammunition in my carry on bag.

I did that both through DIA and on the way back from Detroit's Warren Int Airport. That place is a joke as far as an airport is concerned.

It's Detroit, what do you expect? People don't care what the refugee centers look like compared to the warzone they're leaving

True Story:

Went from DIA to New Jersey and then on to Amsterdam and connected to Zurich... and then, 3 Weeks Later... came back through Zurich to Amsterdam and hit New Jersey and then... suddenly... the fecal material came into contact with the air movement device!!! I used to... repeat: used to... employ one of my Carry On Bags as a Range Bag and I had inadvertantly left a Speed Loader, with 6 Remington .357 Magnum Golden Sabers, in it!!! Not only was the TSA a bit "put out" but, I soon discovered, the New Jersy Gestapo feel particularly strongly that ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT should be allowed to possess Hollow Point Ammo. Got Patted Down (no strip search... phew!!), Got Cuffed (I'm a big boy... it took two pairs of cuffs), Got Arrested (had to endure about two hours of various uniformed goons shouting, "Wheyas da' gun, azzhole?" [New Jersey, remember?] in my face... not fun), Got Booked, Spent 4-Hours in a Holding Cell, Released, Spent the Night at one of the Luxurious & Cost Effective Airport Hotels (missed my flight... big surprise, huh?), Spent MONEY for a GOOD Attorney, Flew back to New Jersey, Rented a Car, Drove to Trenton, Explained my Foolishness to the Judge, Plead Guilty to the Reduced Charge of "Littering" (Yep... no lie... Littering), Gave 'em 4 Benjamins and got the hell out of Dodge before they changed their narrow minds!!!

Expensive little brain cramp, that was...

In short, I don't think that you or your mother in law will hear a peep about it from any Governmental-types ever again.

Amazing to see burned out homes off the highway from Port Huron to South Eastern Detroit.
Pure hellhole and warzone of a city.

I went through security with an empty mag in my back pack. DIA, no problem. IAD, security got called. When the found it I told them, look I have a flight to catch and it is empty. Keep it, throw it away, just don't make me late for my flight. Had to wait till the cops showed up.


No anal probes so I guess it wasn't all bad.
