I was going to visit my grandma in Massachusetts and was coming back, my bag was taken by tsa officers. They found a souvenir bullet I got from battleship Texas, so they called over a supervisor. So he and my mom started talking.he said, “you can mail this to yourself, “we don’t even have a gun what’s he gonna do poke someone with it”, well he could do that”, ” you know what keep it.” Congratulations your saving the world one souvenir bullet at a time.
