An Airport In Argentina Had To Be Evacuated After A Grenade-Shaped Weed Grinder Was Found

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — It looked like a grenade and triggered the evacuation of an Argentine airport. But it turns out that it was just a marijuana grinder. The head of Argentina’s national airport police security said Tuesday that the grenade-shaped object found at Astor Piazzolla airport in the coastal city of Mar del Plata was actually used to break pot into smaller pieces for smoking. “Someone must have discarded the artifact before boarding on a plane,” Alejandro Itzcovich told local TV. He said that authorities “confirmed that it was not an explosive and we’re now trying to determine who the owner of this object is.” Photographs showed an officer in a bomb suit holding the grinder in his hand while colleagues looked at it and smiled. Several flights were delayed due to the evacuation in Mar del Plata, about 250 miles (400 kilometers) southeast of the Argentine capital.

Here is the list of top-4 things you shouldn’t bring to an airport:

4. A weed grinder with weed in it

3. A grenade

2. A grenade-shaped weed grinder

1. A rocket launcher probably?

That’s the complete list. So this person brought the #2 thing you shouldn’t bring to an airport. Because even once the authorities realize, “Oh phew this isn’t a grenade at all. That’s a relief” they’ll quickly realize it’s a weed grinder and you’ll still go to jail if there’s weed in it. So you’re fucked either way. And this of course is after they take you in a back room and search every open hole on your body for more explosives.

Imagine realizing you brought your grenade-shaped weed grinder to the airport. I picture the guy standing in line waiting for security, it dawning on him and him instantly pooping his pants. He was more than likely high so that makes it worse. That’s a paralyzing type of fear I hope to never know. I’ve long talked about how I check the contents of my luggage 45 times on the way to the airport just to make sure there’s not a gun in there. I don’t even own a guy but you never know who’s out to get you. The worst part about having a grenade-shaped weed grinder at the airport is you have to be veryyyyyyyyyy careful when you decide to ditch it because if you someone sees you they’re gonna freak out cause it’ll look like you just threw a grenade in the trash. People are gonna be HITTING THE DECK and then you gotta try to explain to them what’s happening. It’d be a nightmare. Leave your explosives-shaped weed grinders at home, people. It’s not worth it.
