Death Won't Even Stop The TSA
The latest terrorist threat? Bereaved families trying to get their loved one's remains home are likely just putting up a front to smuggle bad things in the URN. Yes, that's right...TSA is now going to require special containers for your loved one's remains so that they can X ray them properly. So, your mother, father, sister, or brother will have to be transported in a plastic baggie or perhaps a nice tupperware container until you get to your destination where a nice, friendly TSA partner funeral home will transfer the remains to something less tacky.
Always looking out for our personal safety, the TSA has offered to "partner" with funeral homes in order to provide this important service. So don't forget when your loved one dies suddenly and/or tragically, causing you to become so grief stricken you can hardly deal with your own life, don't forget to ask your funeral home if they are a TSA partner before you try to get the urn with the remains back home. Else you may not be allowed to take them on the plane with you.
Don't believe me? Check out their notice . So glad to see our government is out there taking care of us.
