How is he not charged for attempting to carry a weapon onto a plane? Light up a cigarette on a plane and you would get a more heavy handed treatment.

Apparently celebrity's have different laws to the rest of us ^&confuse^&confuse

 

[mikemiller1955]

exactly right...

celebrities and athletes receive preferential treatment...

Barry Switzer...
when he was the coach of the Dallas Cowboys in 1997 pulled the same stunt...
this was before the crackdown on airport security from 9/11...

claiming he forgot the gun was in his suitcase...
he was arrested...

he was fined $3,500...a pittance really...

celebrity status favoritism...

if it was me...
they would have sent me to Guantanamo...

Jerry Jones...
the owner of the Cowboys later fined him $75,000...

but that may have been symbolic and probably paid by Jerry...^&grin

I will never understand how you can forget that you have a gun with you under any circumstances?

if you forget that you are carrying a gun you have no business owning one in the first place

Thug mentality. Surprised it wasn't an NFL player.

Jason...

I couldn't have said it better...

if you can't remember you are carrying a loaded gun...

then you're not responsible enough to even own one...

Now that you mention it...ex-NFL running back Lawrence Phillips has been charged with the murder of his CELLMATE. He was already serving a 31 year stretch for choking his girl friend and for trying to run 3 teenagers over with his car. Another fine, upstanding product of America's football factories. -- Al

Everybody in America knows Justice is for sale, the more money the more "justice" you can buy.

Din't he just sign an 88 million dollar contract with Houston?

The thing that would worry me the most if i lived in the states is how many other people are carrying a gun that they have forgotten about like this clown,that is scary ****.

Ive seen the damage a weapon can do to flesh and blood and the thought of a UD,Ive seen it happen in controlled circumstances on a military firing range,very easy thing to happen !!

No offence to my US mates but I wouldn't wanna be catching a plane train bus etc etc with these clowns around no thank you.

I highly doubt that he did not know that the gun was going on the plane with him. To sneak it on...for what ??? Crazy
