Surprise, surprise: Terrorist “dry runs” were a hoax.

You may remember a few weeks ago that CNN reported “dry runs” that were being conducted by terrorists in the United States. One of the “dry runs” occured in San Diego. TSA agents at the San Diego Airport stopped a lady at the security check point who had in her bag some ice packs covered in plastic that had clay inside of them. Turns out, they were just old style ice packs for her back pain. Of course, the alarmist, fear mongering mainstream media jumped on it (as did the TSA), and called it a “dry run” for a future terrorist plot.

I don’t have much else to say about this, other than don’t believe everything you’re told. Especially when it comes from the mainstream media and it applies to terrorism. Check out the video here:
