Source: mlive.com

Shemane Nugent, wife of rocker, political activist and National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent, was arrested Thursday, Aug. 29, at the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport when security officials found a handgun in one of her bags.

Nugent attorney David Finn told the Dallas Morning News and Fort Worth Star Telegram that Shemane Nugent made an “honest mistake” and is remorseful for any inconvenience to airport security, public safety officials and other passengers.

through security the 1st time on the flight down.
I have been on the FAA No Fly List since 12/2001 b/c a terrorist from South Yeman used my very common name as an alias once. We go through all of this inconvenience at the security gate and yet, at the terminals for the private jets, which have names like "Million Air" they just bring out your stuff and load it in. I drove my pickup onto the tarmack and loaded my stuff right in the plane. This is how it was a few years ago, don't know if it is still this easy. Rich people cannot be bothered by such mundane things. Terrorist just have to charter a private jet!

D'oh! This is the type of complacency that kills people. Forgetting you have a gun in your purse at an airport, really? This ignorance is what would allow her to let a 5 year old go in her purse for a stick of gum and end up shooting someone. What a Bimbo.

supposed to be an example of a responsible gun owner? One that doesn't even know if she has a gun in her purse? Put her ass on a no fly list.

she could be facing jail time if she forgot to have the gun loaded with one in the chamber.

It proves that they don't know where their gun is. They don't know how to keep it secure. Either that, or they are deliberately trying to take a gun onto a flight. Both show they are not responsible gun owners.

Found a lot of pics that lead to Breitbart. They had elements that might offend some here. She was attractive, looked much too young for Teddy the Molestor.

But she has aged now. Of course her looks are not the problem. Her twitter page hasn't been updated since the 28th so her latest blurbs aren't there to tell us of her harrowing time at the airport.

She doesn't appear to be a deep thinker. After all, she married that two-legged varmint...
