Hockey Sticks Among Carry-On Items TSA Has Cleared For Planes

coondoggie writes "As of April 25th the Transportation Security Administration will let a bunch of previously prohibited items such as small pocket knives and what it calls 'novelty' or toy bats to be taken on aircraft as carry-ons. The idea the agency said was to let Transportation Security Officers better focus their efforts on spotting higher-threat items such as explosives and guns."

Yeah! Like the liberty to be killed by well armed suicidal terrorists who've hijacked my airplane...
