No more banning Lipgloss
There is good news for the travellers who are visiting United States or London. Appearantly, the government has recently announced that they are no longer banning lipstick and beverages.
According to ABC, “Airline passengers will be allowed to carry travel-sized toiletries of 3 ounces or less if they fit comfortably in one quart-size, clear plastic, zip-top bag, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced today at a press conference. ”
This means that passangers are allowed to bring their make-up stuff without being scan by the security. They also said that “Larger amounts of required liquid-form medications, baby formula and diabetic glucose treatments, must be declared to security officers at the entrance of the checkpoint for screening. ”
I agree with Senator Charles E. Schumer to focus more on the next threat of terrorists such as; nuclear devices or air cargo explosions rather than concentrating on the dangers of lipgloss and fruitdrinks.
The Senator Charles E. Schumer said; “It’s great that the Homeland Security Department is constantly re-evaluating their travel guidelines,” said Schumer. “But they should be devoting far more time and resources on protecting us from the next threats, like nuclear devices, air cargo explosions, and bioterrorism, instead of just debating the relative dangers of lip gloss and fruit drinks.”
