Bea Arthur, Terrorist

Beatrice Arthur, who apparently enjoys a little politics along with her fame, got irked at the airport police:

“She started yelling that it wasn’t hers and said ‘The terrorists put it there,’ ” a fellow passenger said. “She kept yelling about the ‘terrorists, the terrorists, the terrorists.’ ”
After the blade was confiscated, Arthur took a keyring from her bag and told the agent it belonged to the “terrorists,” before throwing it at them.

Now, if you or I had done this [link to http://www.tennessean.com/local/archives/04/02/47019817.shtml no longer works], we’d probably be arrested for assualting a federal agent.
Someone should give her a bag.
