More Travelers Are Packing

Not just their clothes. The Transportation Security Administration isn't sure why more passengers are entering airport security lines with guns this year. But screeners found 894 firearms in the first six months of 2013. That's a 30 percent increase in the number of guns found this year than during the same time period in 2012. The TSA says it's a trend that's been steadily on the rise during the past few years.

Isn't that a sure way to have it confiscated? I guess here that if it's stolen, nothing lost. I paid a lot of cash for mine.

Anybody? Isn't it never permitted?

Personally, I thing everyone should be allowed to carry who has had proper instruction. "Shall not be infringed" comes to mind.

The morning show on CBS decided that this was done in error. They thought the weapon was left in the case by accident. REALLY...who forgets where their handgun is? Major news is trying to keep the peace. I hope they can.

If everybody on the plane, or anywhere else for that matter, there would be no hijackings and no mass murders.

DUH.
