I'm watching CBS and the questions the "news" folks are asking are asinine and repetitive. The police officer just told them that he could not give certain details and the so called "news" folks continue to fire those type questions. Don't they listen to each other? I for one couldn't handle that crap, I would have lost it after the third time the same damn dumb question was asked.

 

I actually heard one news person ask the police officer something to the effect of, "why shut down the entire airport?" She's an idiot.

Reports that he flew from Canada. Had gun in checked bag. Loaded gun in bathroom after retrieving it.

 

I don't know for sure but I didn't think you could fly with ammo, so if this is true I wonder where he got ammo.

 

That ammo had to be in that men's room.

You can check ammo as well.

Gentleman on CNN just said he was allowed to fly with 50 rounds last month.

You can check ammo as well.

 

In another locked cas I believe.

How do we allow WEAPONS and AMMO into baggage on international flights?

Good Lord how is anyone allowed to fly with 50 rounds?

Didn't know. Thanks.

What does it matter if it is in a checked bag?

From TSA's website

 

[h=2]Ammunition[/h]

• Ammunition is prohibited in carry-on baggage, but may be transported in checked baggage.
  
• Firearm magazines and ammunition clips, whether loaded or empty, must be securely boxed or included within a hard-sided case containing an unloaded firearm. Read the requirements governing the transport of ammunition in checked baggage as defined by 49 CFR 175.10 (a)(8).
  
• Small arms ammunition, including ammunition not exceeding .75 caliber and shotgun shells of any gauge, may be carried in the same hard-sided case as the firearm.

I guess it matters because it goes under the plane. They don't have that bag with them until they are leaving the airport.

I got that, my question was to the people asking why they allow people to fly with ammo.

Reading deeper into TSA regs it only says small amount but I didn't see a specific quantity of ammo.

It is stupid, AT BEST, to allow any ammo in any civilian passengers bag. Checked or not.
