Look, I'm not in love with the TSA or anything, but it does rather sound
like they did what they are supposed to do, and what I would want them to
do. If something looks like a pipe bomb, and the person carrying it
admits
that (1) he has no idea what it is, and (2) somebody else gave it to him
to
carry onto the aircraft, what would you have the TSA do? Ignore it?



Have him open it, while standing back.
