> MILWAUKEE (AP) – A suitcase packed with 45 pounds of marijuana passed through security at Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee County.  
> Sheriff David Clarke suspects it was “an inside job” because of the security breach. Clarke says it’s unnerving that such a bag can bypass all the TSA security devices.  
> Investigators aren’t saying exactly where the untagged suitcase was found, but they believe it was destined for a plane to New York.  
> This week’s discovery at the airport follows another large marijuana bust over the weekend in Milwaukee County. A deputy pulled over a driver on Interstate 43 and found a suitcase and duffel bag with 63 pounds of marijuana valued at more than $200,000.

Hopefully they didn’t notice because they’re so busy making sure there are no bombs.

I’ll stick to driving when ever possible though. 😉

I don’t remove my liquids from my carry on. Only about once in twenty trips do I get pulled to the side :shrug:
