Just How Much Stress Are We Talking About?
A whole new meaning for the ”two carry-on limit.”
An Iraqi immigrant faces deportation after triggering a security scare at Los Angeles International Airport when authorities found a suspicious device lodged in his body, officials said. Fadhel Al-Maliki, 35, of Atlantic City, N.J., prompted the alert March 6 during a screening for a flight to Philadelphia when he tried to go through security with two objects in his rectum.
The FBI said he told screeners the objects, a polished stone and a piece of metal, were used to fight stress. That wasn’t enough to constitute a federal offense, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.
We already have to take our shoes off, Fadhel, let’s not give them any more ideas. Although, as far as stress relief goes, I suppose it would distract you from thinking about anything that wasn’t jammed up your posterior.
