NEWARK, NEW JERSEY — A man trying to ROLL his way through a TSA checkpoint at the Newark Liberty International Airport found it a bit harder to PASS through than usual. <br />Whoever is writing the local press releases at the TSA deserves a big fat raise for this piece titled, "How not to roll through a checkpoint…" <br />It appears that on October 29, an unidentified man was trying to pass security when TSA agents spotted a revolver in his carry-on bag. <br />According to CNN, after a closer inspection, agents were relieved to find out it was only a gun-shaped toilet paper holder. <br />The TSA then DUMPED this line, "yes, this most unusual revolver was not designed to spin bullets. It was designed to spin toilet paper." <br />CNN reported that the TP roller triggered an alarm as it went through the X-ray machine. <br />The agency said, "TSA does not permit travelers to bring real or replica firearms through a checkpoint." <br />The guy was given a few options: take the roller back to his car, put it in his checked luggage, give it to a friend not traveling, or gift it to the TSA.<br />He chose to give it to his pals at the TSA. Hopefully someone there can do some damage with it.
