    Being "too known" can make one sound as an illiterate. Why didn't you ask Aviation Security workers but choose to display your ignorance so publicly?

    Thanks for making the public aware of it but you could have done better in your position by contacting the public relations department of the company for explanation first before running to social media.

    So, Mr "policy analyst" will you complain about the policy also of not allowing pepper spray to be carried in hand luggage. Sometimes it is good to put "book long' aside and use commonsense.

    Bright Simone is becoming a joke lately
    He's now parading himself as a panacea of every knowledge on earth. People close to him should tell him to shut up at least for a while. How i used to admire his guy!
