And when he's packing a pistol, TSA insists he not have a knife, because knives aren't allowed on commercial aircraft.

This is the kind of genius only a bureaucracy can achieve.

And it brings to mind North's first law of bureaucracy:
"There is no bureaucratic rule which, if consistently enforced, will not produce a preposterous result as a limit."

North's second law of bureaucracy:
"Over time, some bureaucrat will pursue a rule to the limit of law #1."
