You try and take airport security seriously, [for obvious reasons](http://xrlq.com/Images/9-11%20(1).bmp), but the enterprise is riddled with so much hysteria and foolishnessthat it stokes the very complacency it seeks to prevent. Case in point: via TAPPED’s Alexandra Gutierrez, it appears a pilot freaked outafter seeing a bike decorated by a sticker for the quality Florida punk band This Bike Is A Pipe Bombat the Memphis airport. Airport police brought in a canine unit and the bike’s owner was briefly detained. Amazingly, no actual terrorists were thwarted by this ludicrous farce. If That Bike wasa Pipe Bomb, chances are it wouldn’t come so neatly labeled.
