How was she to know.
There aren’t any “No Bombs or bomb like materials” signs on the entrance door and all of the “No Weapons” signs have little pictures of hand guns!

Maybe it is time for the government to come up with a new sticker for public buildings, especially since all of those “no guns/weapons” signs work so well in high schools and malls.

On the whole I support our right to bare arms…. That makes me completely unable to see why it would be bad for someone to bring something like a bomb into an airport.

From the description it sounds like the thing she was wearing didn’t look anything like a bomb… I’m not sure we want to allow the police to shoot anyone that has something they think looks like a bomb, given that they aparently can’t distinguish between bombs and sightly unusual clothing. It just gives state agents a whole hell of a lot of discretionary power.

From ARticle:
“Update 7: Christy from Instructables.com says (1125am PT),

I talked to Star briefly — she’s out on bail, is just fine, and thinks the whole thing is crazy.

Of course, they’ve impounded her sweatshirt, so she’s got to do something else for Career Day.”

I think her new career day project should be an easily disguised small object that can double as a shank. Since her career is probably going to be “inmate” for a while.

Well this girl definitely had her Bad Idea Jeans on at the time, but summary execution is, shall we say, not really an ideal fit to the crime.
