I had a rather embarrassing moment at airport security a few years ago. My mother-in-law needed to come up north from Florida, and refused to fly. So, being a good son-in-law, I flew down to drive her, my father-in-law, and wife back. Once we got Mom in the van, we weren't going to easily get her in and out during the trip, so it was decided that I would bring a catheter to put in her (I am a nurse). Well, being that I wasn't staying long, I packed in a backpack, and chose to carry-on, instead of checking baggage. At the gate, they chose me to inspect. It was rather embarrasing when they pulled a catheter, insertion kit, and drainage back from my back pack!!!!

Easy. I was flying from the US to England to visit friends. I had a bunch of wrapped gifts in my carry-on luggage. One of them was a plastic toy gun. It never even occurred to me! I thought it would be funny for my English friend to have a cowboy style six-shooter.
As the bag was going through the X-ray machine, the security people stopped the machine. The man looked at me and said, "Um, is there something in your bag that shouldn't be there?"
It took me a minute to realize I had tried to sneak a gun through airport security.
Luckily, when I explained the situation, they were very nice about it. They made me unwrap the present, and I had to place it in my checked through luggage. But that was all.

you do not. except you opt to get arrested don't be stupid and take it to the airport. you may want to might want to be an fool to target to get something questionable by skill of airport protection lately. Even mailing it may be a difficulty. after I flew with a 2 month previous toddler i could not even get a toddler bottle packed with water by skill of protection, there is not any way you receives a bong by skill of.

A really big kitchen knife. Didn't realize the serious aspect of doing this.
