DHS issues Turkey fryer warning

Follow on Twitter:

The Department of Homeland Security is taking any threat seriously during the Thanksgiving holiday, including the ominous threat to our national security posed by turkey fryers.

"How dangerous can turkey fryers be?" asks a warning issued on the official DHS Twitter account. "Make sure the turkey is completely thawed before placing in a fryer, or this may happen."

The department linked to an ominous video highlighting the dangers of deep frying a turkey.

"Use turkey fryers outdoors at a safe distance from buildings." the DHS tweeted, "Never use turkey fryers in a garage or on a wooden deck."

Danger of Turkey Fryers

Turkey fryers are a threat to national security, so DHS has to send out a warning about them.



Gee, thanks DHS, you've really saved the day once again!

Turkey friers of mass destruction, oh the humanity.

What area of our lives will they endeavor to intrude upon next.  I could kind of understand this if it was sent to DHS employees as a reminder to be safe over Thanksgiving. 

But as a warning to the nation from the department supposedly charged with protecting national security, it is an idiotic over reach.
