Smartest guy at the airport... Ever. (sarcasm)
Sometimes I wonder if there should be an intelligence test to be able to leave your house with your gun.
Man arrested after trying to hide gun in planter Published: July 10, 2012 PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - An Oregon man has been arrested after airport authorities saw him trying to hide his gun in a planter box so he could retrieve it upon his return. The Oregonian reports that 69-year-old Soren Muir Johnson of Eagle Point was arrested for investigation of reckless endangering. Transportation Security Administration employees say he was told he couldn't carry his loaded weapon through a security checkpoint and that he should put it in his luggage instead. They say that they watched as he disregarded that advice and instead dropped the .22-caliber pistol in an airport planter box on June 24. Port of Portland spokesman Steve Johnson says police recovered the gun. Police say the man told them he hid the gun so he could retrieve it when he returned from his trip. http://m.apnews.com/ap/db_16032/ contentdetail.htm?contentguid=IP4ByXUt

Wow, What a terrible idea.
Did he really think his loaded gun would just sit there in a planter undisturbed until he flew back? |

Someone's decision making rights need to be revoked... Permantely!

I wonder how close to the "sterile area" he was. I don't usually see TSA GI Joes roaming the baggage claim or drop off/pick up areas.
