"Authorities briefly evacuated one of four concourses at Indianapolis International Airport Tuesday. That's after a security screener saw a pair of scissors in a bag that was being x-rayed."

"Airport officials say screeners wanted to inspect the bag by hand but mistakenly retrieved a different bag, allowing the bag with the scissors to be picked up by a passenger. Passengers were asked to leave the concourse."

"Airport police and officials from the U.S. Transportation Security Administration searched for the bag containing the scissors. About 150 passengers had to go back through security inspections before re-entering the concourse."

"The scissors were not found, but authorities say they are confident that they were not in the concourse." ...

Legal Scholars Craft Second Amendment Challenge to DC Gun Ban

"Cato Institute legal scholars are crafting a legal strategy for challenging District of Columbia laws on Second Amendment grounds. The city's gun ban is among the most restrictive in the nation."

"A 1976 law passed by the D.C. city council forbids most District residents from owning a handgun. Only law enforcement officers and residents who owned their (registered) guns prior to 1976 are exempt. Residents who already own a registered firearm are not allowed to keep it loaded unless they get a one-year license from the D.C. police chief, which is entirely at his discretion."

" 'D.C.'s blanket provisions are patently unreasonable,' said Robert A. Levy of the Cato Institute, speaking Wednesday at a George Mason University law school forum hosted by Law Students for the Second Amendment and the Federalist Society." ...

"A proposal to change the pledge taken by AmeriCorps members to include references to God and defending the Constitution has stirred an outcry among current and former participants in the federally supported community service organization."

"The critics argue that the change, for which final Congressional approval is expected next year, might deter recruiting."

"The executive director of the alumni group of AmeriCorps, Michael J. Meneer, warned of concerns that the new pledge was 'militaristic and religious.' "

" 'Respondents were concerned that the new pledge would have the effect of dividing people rather than uniting them,' Mr. Meneer said last week in a letter."

"Congressional Republicans say the new oath is virtually identical to that required of all federal employees, including members of the armed forces and Peace Corps volunteers. Moreover, they note, the new phrase 'so help me God' is optional."

"The old pledge ends 'I will get things done.' The new version finishes with 'so help me God.' " ...
