- petre 5y agoBecause swiss army knives are way more common than AK47s on carry on luggage? Directed Attention Fatigue? I heard a story from a guy who was a hunter about how he forgot about some misplaced ammo in a backpack that he then used as carry on luggage. Of course security found it and he got himself a criminal record. It happened in Europe, where one doesn't buy ammo at the grocery store and it has to be stored under key separately from the firearm etc.

Rick Owens pants with a plethora of massive hidden pockets make this all the easier. Not very high stakes obviously, worst case scenario I might end up losing a bottle of parfume or some hot sauce.
