Is this an IED, or just a coconut sitting at this location for no apparent reason?<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lance Corporal Joseph Simkus was on his way home to celebrate Thanksgiving with his family. While at the airport, in the security line, he decided to crack a joke. He asked the TSA to check his shoes for C-4 explosives. This resulted in a delay in his travel plans when security took him aside for further questioning.<\/p>\n

From Marine Times:<\/span><\/p>\n

“We are aware of the incident involving LCpl. Joseph Simkus, and his subsequent arrest,” Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point officials said in a statement to WWAY.<\/p>\n

“We are working with local authorities to ensure a thorough investigation. We will take further appropriate actions pending future court appearances and any potential rulings.”<\/p>\n

Simkus is scheduled to appear in court Dec. 20, where the part-time comedian will inevitably have even more audience members to test out new jokes.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is like a documentary I watched a long time ago. They were introducing some tigers into Africa, to live in the wild. One of the tigers tried to chase a rhino that was too big for the tiger’s size. It was like cracking a security-related joke in the security line at the airport.<\/p>\n
