Ice Cube Claps Back After TSA, And the Thief Folds Like a Mixtape in the Rain"

The "Gin and Juice" MC-turned-actor Ice Cube hopped on Twitter to inform the public that while flying to an undisclosed location, someone had burglarized him on what he called his "@UnitedAirlines flight out of LAX." Cube, not being anyone who beats around the bush when feelings are at stake, addressed the situation head-on: somebody at the TSA helped themselves to his shit.

Mentally picture yourself as that hero of the foolish who decided it would be a good move to take something out of Ice Cube's checked luggage. First off, why was the iPad in the checked baggage? We may never know. That's for Cube and the TSA gods to work out. But we do know that messing with a cultural icon like him is the sort of terrible judgment that doesn't get a refund.

The internet, of course, pounced on this like it was a sequel to Friday. The fans joked, traded memes, and made each other laugh, openly pondering how quickly they would send something back if Cube even peered at it. Let's face it: If Ice Cube caught you taking his iPad, That's three syllables for a heart attack: "We need to talk."

The stolen items were returned, and Ice Cube is a remarkable man with an attitude once again. We may never know whether the thief had a last-minute change of heart or didn't want to inspire another verse in the diss tracks. What we know is this: Fear is a strong motivator. And Ice Cube? He can still be scary when he wants to.

Cube's book may not be a matter of life and death but of respect. And to throw a major airline under the bus on social media? That's how you make noise. Take note, United Airlines: when Ice Cube talks, people listen. You might want to return to that baggage department before Cube calls a second time.

So here's the lesson, folks: Do not steal. And for sure, don't rob Ice Cube. If he comes for what's his, you can do nothing but return it and pray you don't become a cautionary lyric on his next track.
