Lego goes TSA???

Was looking at Lego's new Airport Set (#7894), and noticed this in the descriptions and features (bolding mine):

"It's always a busy day at the LEGO CITY Airport! Load the luggage truck and drive it to baggage claim, then check the plane for any needed repairs and prepare for the next flight. Prepare for security check and help more passengers board the plane.
• Comes complete with control tower, security check, baggage claim, viewers' platform, airplane and luggage truck
• Includes 5 airport personnel minifigures!
• Revolving door really spins!!"

Yes, they had to state that the Lego Airport has "security check" twice as a "feature" in this set.

I know damn well if I got this set, I'd be slipping one of the bomb blocks from a Western set into someone's luggage.....or get a turbaned minifig from an Orient Express set to have the security guards giving a beatdown on him.....

Yes, I am a VERY sick puppy......

If I actually sink that low, (laugh), I'll take one of the books from a Harry Potter set and photoshop a new cover for it......

But aren't you gonna ruin it when you hollow out the interior to hide the electronic detonator?? (chuckle)

Actually I want to slip the G.I. Joe handgranade in there personally but you KNOW how I am. ;D Blessed Be, Angelique

Well? Part of the reason for these sets is to familiarize little kids with the kinds of things they can expect to see in the real places, whether in movies or "real life". It makes a kind of sense but it's sad that the world has gone so mad. :-(
