Birdbrains, two of them.
On the left we have Sony Dong, who was arrested in March after coming in from Vietnam, caught with them strapped under his pants at Los Angeles International Airport.
And on the right, a 23-year-old Australian returning from a trip to the Middle East was caught with two live pigeons in his pants, according to customs officials. They said the man could be charged with wildlife smuggling, an offense punishable by 10 years in prison.
Vietnam to L.A.? Middle East to Australia? Those aren't commuter hops, they both take long hours, it's a wonder the birds were alive.
I don't know about Dong, but the Aussie
could get 10 years, probably won't, but how many years is worth the risk?
How much money could either of them make on those birds, to make it worth the risk?
Birdbrains.
