It looks an awful lot like an empty tube. No weapon.

“Not a live device”,
That is, expended disposable launcher.
It’s rather a dick move to confiscate it.

A launcher tube without a missile is about as dangerous as a fired cartridge case. Much upset about nothing.

Just a Texan bringing home a war souvenir. They should have let him keep it.
They handed it over to the state fire marshall for disposal. Who probably disposed it into his private collection.

I don’t see a ‘missile launcher’ in that photo. I see a shipping container that may have held a small rocket at one time.

“””the military grade weapon was located in the man’s checked luggage at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.”””


Sure sounds like a Baltimore RAT was fleeing the ship now that Trump has put his focus on their corruption.

What was the RAT’s destination?

Oh give me a freaking break! That looks like a “military grade” mailing tube.

Was it an active launcher or just the empty fired tube?

Harmless empty shell, but let’s make a federal case of it anyway.
