Jewellery so Dangerous it could get you BUSTED

Gun in Question

Well okay…not busted but hassled. What a hilarious development. I couldn’t hope for better cred than having my work be too great a security risk to fly with…the absurdity of that has already been well covered. The links below highlight the media that have run the situation caused by the BADASS Peacemaker Pendant and the silly arse at the airport. Some of the best comments are on BlogTO and Boingboing. It is running in the Globe and Mail, Toronto Star, and a bunch more blogs and papers Even the United Press International and the Canadian Press are posting it. Enjoy…I did. I still am enjoying it.

Thanks to Marnina Norys for her inconvienience in the airport and the initiative with doing her press release for a proper venting of frustration and humour. And thanks to Rosalind Robertson for being media savvy, supportive, and enthusiastic about the fun this has proven to be. Sadly you will not likely be stopped in the airport for wearing a rocket ship pendant but one never can tell. Didn’t think a sterling pistol with no moving parts was a threat either…symbolism is a very powerful thing.
