there shouldn't be any exceptions because of who you are. A uniform and an ID can be faked. The TSA aren't capable of telling the difference.Children, women, soldiers, and anyone else who might be granted leniency are just a way through the system

If the thought was that there where explosives in the play doh then all that had to be done was to scan it.. the tsa staff must be filled with idiots.

It could easily be dyed and scented to mimic Play-doh, and no one would be any the wiser. A few small containers of the stuff could easily bring down an airliner if placed in the right places.

Its only a matter of time before some extremists convince a child to go jihading innocently with a stuffed teddy, play doh, or some other way of concealing explosives. Good job TSA. I agree.

I don't think it specifically says in the TSA rule book that I cant dress up like a 6 foot cock/balls and get on the plane. I also wouldn't call local news outlets when I inevitably get kicked off.

Rather than this cunt having to buy another $4 play doh we should train thousands of airline workers the different consistencies of playdoh and platic explosives?

That doesn't looks good,by “encouraged to use their discretion” the TSA spokesperson intended to convey: “encouraged to behave like the brain dead zombies they are”.

Do any of the idiots here claiming security are the bad guys have ANY idea what the hell plastic explosive is or what it looks like? It could easily be dyed and scented to mimic Play-doh, and no one would be any the wiser. A few small containers of the stuff could easily bring down an airliner if placed in the right places. I bet the only reason Play-doh wasn't on the prohibited list was because they didn't think anyone would actually be stupid enough to try to bring something that could easily be plastic explosive onto a plane.

They took my 4-year-old daughter's (brand new) play-doh. They only thing that prevented her from joining al Qaida on the spot was that I managed to keep the empty containers.

it makes sense really….. if it looks like plastic explosives then ban it!

its a whole lot more sense than banning nail clippers and the likes!

And if plastic explosives was hidden in even the bottom of one container? Do you think adults are the only weapons of war? Ever heard of a child soldier? Africa has lots of them. Its only a matter of time before some extremists convince a child to go jihading innocently with a stuffed teddy, play doh, or some other way of concealing explosives. Good job TSA. I agree, the parents are the idiots in this case, leave the toys at home and give him penny to play with.

Lets also ignore the fact that the play doh set appeared to be in 16+ small containers. The next time you are running late for a flight do you really feel like waiting for someone to go through as they check each one??

I dont think it SPECIFICALLY says in the TSA rule book that I cant dress up like a 6 foot cock/balls and get on the plane. I also wouldnt call local news outlets when I inevitably get kicked off.

They are not going to sit there and test the play doh to see if explosives are mixed into it. Don't bring things that look like plastic explosives on a plane and you shouldn't have a problem. Common sense if you ask me.

Staff at a UK regional airport confiscated my 6 yr old son's toy handcuffs saying he might “lock up the pilot” (that's the guy behind the steel security shutters, isn't it?).

ok this is completely stupid. if the thought was that there where explosives in the play doh then all that had to be done was to scan it.. the tsa staff must be filled with idiots. my guess the tsa screener saw the play doh and said “look play doh, i gots something to do on break”.
