Illinois Man Traveling With His Mom Accused of Telling Airport Security Penis Pump Was a Bomb
08-23-2006 1:12 PM

CHICAGO -- 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 was stopped by officials on Aug. 16 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 faces up to three years in prison if convicted.

What a great story for a job interview where they ask for an example of a time when you had to think on your feet.

"Funny you should ask... This one time, I was going on a sex romp in Turkey with my mother, and the darndest thing..."

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.

So now not only does his mom know, but so does the rest of the world. "That's not my bag baby."

He thought his mom would be horrified if he used a penis pump, but ok with him carrying bombs on airplanes?

 

[cadmus]

"Penis pump" and "mom" in the same sentence is just wrong.

"Burly's mom" on the other hand, now that's another story.....

 

[llkoolkeg]

So now not only does his mom know, but so does the rest of the world. "That's not my bag baby."

That Austin Powers scene flashed across my synapses, as well.

Sure. Bombs aren't morally questionable in... oh, the hell with it. I can't type it with a straight face...

I think the cat probably told the security that it was a "bong" and the super enforcers jumped to "bomb" without asking for clarifacation.

I'm pretty sure there aren't many people who're dumb enough to tell airport security that they've got a bomb.

Yeah, that sounds more reasonable.

Yeah, that could have been it. If the guy hadn't been dumb enough to bring it on a trip with his mother... :looney:

Chicago Judge Allows Penis Pump Airport Security Case to Proceed
08-24-2006 3:17 PM

CHICAGO -- A Cook County judge has decided there is enough evidence to prosecute a man who says an airport security guard misheard him when she thought he said that a sexual device in his backpack was actually a bomb.

Mardin Amin claims he actually told the guard the small, black object was a "pump" _ as in a penis pump.

Amin's attorney said her client was embarrassed to explain the object in front of his mother, who was traveling with him, so he whispered. The guard misunderstood, and thought he said "bomb," according to defense attorney Eileen O'Neill-Burke.

"His mother is standing there so, under his breath, he says, 'It's a pump. Put it away. Put it away,'" O'Neill-Burke told The Associated Press on Thursday. The guard asked him again and he repeated that the object was a pump, the attorney said.

O'Neill-Burke added that Amin, an Iraqi, has a thick accent and she herself had trouble understanding him until he brought the pump to her office and showed it to her. She said she recently learned that Arabic speakers sometimes have trouble distinguishing the sounds "p" and "b."

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 on Aug. 16 at O'Hare International Airport.

Amin, 29, of Skokie, is charged with felony disorderly conduct and faces up to three years in prison if convicted. He was released on $75,000 bond and is due back in court Sept. 13. O'Neill-Burke said he will plead not guilty then.

Amin 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."

 

[BurlyShirley]

Half of America? Wow.

 

[DaveW]

Feeling left out shirly?

 

[blue]

Damn, one of them Eh-Rabs gets "randomly" cavity searched in security and they mistakenly think his wang extender's a bomb...Not only that, he's getting smacked with a felony. SWEET!

I love America.

What a waste of taxpayer money.
