If you happen to be a young man of Middle Eastern descent and you’re travelling to Turkey from America and you’re stupid enough to bring along your ... ahem ... “pump”, what are you going to tell security personnel when they ask you what that object is in your baggage?

Oh, did I forget to mention that you’re at the world’s busiest airport with thousands of people watching and your mother is standing right beside you?

Of course the really smart thing to do is tell the nice security folks that it’s a bomb ... because having people think you’re a terrorist is less painful than having your mom and half of Chicago know you have a tiny you-know-what ...

CHICAGO (AP) - August 24, 2006, 5:14 PM EDT

Cook County prosecutors say a 29-year-old man traveling with his mother desperately didn’t want her to know he’d packed a sexual aid for their trip to Turkey. So he told security it was a bomb, officials said.

Madin Azad Amin, 29, of Skokie, was stopped Aug. 16 at O’Hare International Airport after guards found an object in his baggage that resembled a grenade, prosecutors said. When officers asked him to identify it, Amin said it was a bomb, said Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney Lorraine Scaduto.

He later told officials he’d lied about the item because his mother was nearby and he didn’t want her to hear that it was part of a penis pump, Scaduto said. He’s been charged with felony disorderly conduct, said Andrew Conklin, a spokesman with the Cook County state’s attorney’s office.

Amin’s attorney told a Cook County judge Wednesday that Amin whispered that the component was a “pump.” The guard misunderstood, and thought he said “bomb,” according to defense attorney Eileen O’Neill-Burke.

“He told her it’s a pump,” O’Neill-Burke said. “He’s standing with his mother. Of course he’s not going to shout this out.”

However, Judge Gerald Winiecki decided there was sufficient evidence for the case to move forward after the female security guard testified that she heard Amin “clearly” say the word bomb.

Amin is charged with felony disorderly conduct, which could bring a three-year prison sentence if he’s convicted. Amin is due back in court Sept. 13

He told the Chicago Sun-Times after the hearing that security officials did not give him a chance to explain the misunderstanding, that he would never use the word “bomb” while going through a security checkpoint, and does not consider a penis pump an unusual object to own.

“It’s normal,” he said. “Half of America they use it.”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
