ASININE: Cupcake Deemed ‘Security Threat,’ Confiscated By TSA

When it comes to buffoonery and complete and total incompetence, there’s no topping the TSA. Everybody who reads this blog knows my feelings about that just-as-worthless-as-the U.N. welfare program called TSA. Get rid of it, period. It’s not needed and does nothing but provide a false sense of security to the cowardly.

Well, those Mensa members from the Vegas branch of TSA have outdone themselves with this genius thinking:

BOSTON — A Peabody woman says a cupcake she tried to take on a flight with her sparked a potential security threat this week.

Rebecca Hains says she was going through security at the airport in Las Vegas when a TSA agent pulled her aside and said the cupcake frosting was “gel-like” enough to constitute a security risk.

She said she was able to pass through Logan International Airport security with two cupcakes, but she was stopped on the way back when she tried to return with one of them….

Hains said she had received the cupcakes as a gift and after eating one on the trip out west, decided to save the other for the flight back.

Hains contacted the cupcake company, Wicked Good Cupcakes of Cohasset, which said it will ship her a new batch free of charge.

“Apparently we’re a tasty, terrorist threat. I guess we were also amazed at what can pass through security in one airport, but not in another,” said Brian Vilagie of Wicked Good Cupcakes.

You should read about the incompetence of TSA in a story we posted earlier today entitled, TSA blows it again, big time, and you’ll be wondering why these buffoons are worried about a cupcake from a middle-aged woman. The incompetence is truly astounding.
