So, which is more horrifying, that a turtle is now considered a terrorist threat, or that it's utterly incomprehensible that someone would forget to disarm himself before traveling?
Or possibly the commentary suggesting the utter lunacy in possessing a flare gun and flares where such items, if one tried really, really, really hard and was quite creating, could cause some serious damage?
One wonders if the author has ever driven a car, thus presenting a far greater threat to far more people that said lunatic flare-gun fetishist.
