Why the fuck would you want a goddamn rocket launcher??
What purpose does “news” like this serve us? A complete lie off the top of some random journalist’s head about something completely inconsequential and pointless. What a waste of everyone’s time.
Sooooo, I did something a little similar about 11 years ago.
I went to Texas (I’m in the UK) to visit a mate and I bought back a deactivated granade for my son. I had unscrewed the pin mechanism from the top, leaving a large metal pineapple.
TSA weren’t impressed and had the police come to security. The tsa was really over the top and was really unimpressed when after checking me and swabbing me for drugs that he found nothing.
The police were pissed for being called down to the gate and moaned at the tsa for calling them when it was clearly just a block of metal now and clearly not a grenade. The cops then told me that I couldn’t take it onboard as it could still be used as a weapon to hit someone. I said that was all cool and went on my way.
About a month later I got a letter from the TSA fining me £250 for trying to bring an “inert grenade” on board.
So, usual standard of journalism from this trash rag.
NO smuggling, they were importing (I wish these pathetic individuals would learn to use a bloody dictionary ) items that they has checked were allowed in.
The offence was under French law, it was a simple fine, the items were already decommissioned and safe.
The items were very clearly declared at customs!!!!
They weren’t smugglers (again this shit-rag needs to use a friggin dictionary), they were aid workers returning with gifts.
Such a low-intellect,, embarrassing story, why even give it the time of day here!
If you declare something you’re not really a smuggler are you
