[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

WHAT?!? NO THROWING STARS?!?

[flamingskullballs]

i know!!!

and we cant go bow hunting on the plane either!!!

[flamingskullballs]

this is madness

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

how am i supposed to kill the pilot and eat his flesh without a good 20.6?!?

[FunkyMonkey]

I got a kick out of no bludgeons allowed, I mean who legitimately carries a bludgeon except for british police?

And yea, throwing stars are already illegal did they have to specify not to bring them on a plane?
lol

and I noticed you could have a knitting needle but not an ice pick. The only real difference when it comes down to a life and death situation is that one has a better handle. They can both be used as a weapon though.

[FunkyMonkey]

looks like nunchukas are ok
no bludgeons unless you have 2 of them and they are joined by a chain.

[OzzyOz]

that's not good...
why would you need scisscors on a airplane, honestly?

[passit420]

it didnt say no bombs. YES. lol. o and in case the gov't is reading this, i am not a terrorist. i love America and all that she stands for, well mostly all that she stands for.

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

all that she stands for except government and corperation.


those two need to be annahilated.

[PaulCT7]

Didnt say anything about flamethrowers either, FLAME ON BIATCHES

[passit420]

how can they say ice picks and not comething else like cricket bats or javelins. also could you bring a guitar case filled with guns?

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

hell the gitaur case alone is a weapon in it's own right, and i guess i cannot board a plane, seeing as my body is easily usable as a weapon!

[passit420]

do teeth count? i could bite the pilots ears off mike tyson style.

[FunkyMonkey]

i swear to God, if someone tried to attack me with a saw, i'd bitch slap the hell out of 'em WITH THE SAW. then i'd saw off their leg and beat them to death with it.

haha can you imagine some guy trying to hijack with a saw lol. Everyone would just keep watching the movie without taking them seriously.

"Take me to cuba or Ill cut you good..if you hold really still for me please, this is going to take a while. But when Im done youll know I mean business!"



( Javelin LOL!)
"Back up I need some space to throw this thing but when I do....ooooh watch out!"

[passit420]

why dont they just say, "if we dont like the way it looks, or if it looks sharp, we take it from you and you go to jail."

they could be a master of saw-handling. if your an eighth degree black belt trained in the ways of the saw, you could probably do some damage.

little did they know. *jumps out of chair, pulls saw out of sleeve, chops head off of dummy replica of Ganj*

[FunkyMonkey]

"trained in the ways of the saw" hehehe

Why am I picturing that 'retarded' kid that made the star wars vid? lol.
( y'all know the one Im talking about)

[Stoner Shadow Wolf]

haaaaa the saw saber kid!

[Funkamander]

Looks like me and my axes are gonna have an adventure.

[pabloescobar209]

well that pretty much says that there was no reason to take all of those items before, but they did for what reason, this just gave me a flashback of this one news interview where this fbi agent was talking about to to protect yourself on a plane.." Well I think everybody should carry a strong metal briefcase, if a situation would arise on a plane it would be very easy to beat someone to dead using this, as well as holding your belongings."

[ICBINR]

WHAT?!? NO THROWING STARS?!?

:eek:

lol

Sounds like a funny SNL skit, a guy trying to hijack a plane with nail clippers

[friendowl]

fuck flying.and you cant say bomb on the airplane
