“A college student from China was arrested trying to carry a combination stun gun and flashlight onto a plane in New York City,” the mainstream media mavens at cbs.com report (for reasons I can’t fathom). “The Transportation Security Administration said a checkpoint screener spotted the item in [Sihui “Hannah”] Xie’s carry-on luggage as she headed for an Orlando, Florida-bound flight at Kennedy Airport. The TSA said the device initially just appeared to be a flashlight, but the screener looked more closely and saw it also was a stun gun. Xie was then arrested . . . Xie said by phone Sunday that she pleaded not guilty and believes her weapons-possession case is on track to be resolved with a fine.” Judging from the flashlight/stun gun demo video above, the TSA seems to lack a sense of humor. Just sayin’ . . .
