Via the Guardian. This seems to be part of the UK's "criminalize everything" campaign. There are few means as readily available to show the limits of power and fear as jokes - and it is scary how easily we have accepted the new social rules about not joking in the presence of airport officials and security personnel. As the article says: We would rather make fun of the pope then send up some goon at the gateway. Of course, this also has to do with raw power: The pope may deny us Heaven, but the TSA official will force us to spend Christmas at the airport.
Defend your right to be funny! Make a bomb-related joke today!
