"Misleading" is the kindest thing that one could say about it. Very nearly deceitful, it is.

In its defense, it doesn't look like a weapon to me at all. It looks like a sex toy conceived (pun intended) during an acid trip.

OR like a really funky backscratcher.

By the way, I haven't flown since 9/11, so kudos to those of you who do. I am SLOWLY working up the nerve to do, however. My Better Half wants to travel.
