Crazed Penn State Prof Busted for Flying While Liberal

Many of you probably saw the network news reports about the United Airlines flight yesterday that returned to Dulles International airport when a crazed passenger yelling something about Jihad was restrained by other passengers. What you might have seen only on local but not on national broadcasts was a crazed Pennsylvania State University professor who began ranting loony left slogans on a flight from Nicaragua to Miami last weekend. 

The Washington Post published a story about professor Karen Halnon whose rantings sounded too embarrassingly close to an MSNBC host for NBC Nightly News or the other national broadcasts to cover. Even the Washington Post described her leftwing rants as a "loud foreign policy lecture" rather than get any more specific in its characterization:

How would you like minding your own business on a flight and the passenger next to you suddenly erupts as this one did?

p.s. Will her Penn State employment be terminated?

[SkyDancer]

Probably put her in charge of a new course of Islamic relations or something something ....

[cripplecreek]

She better call Saul.

[Kozak]

That’s one reason I have duct tape in my carry on.....

[rktman]

LOL! Probably not since she was “in character”. Well at least for a lib professor. They’re just so, just so, well, tolerant.

[Bobalu]

She has to be mental...why else would someone do something so obviously unbalanced and strange.

I hope she gets the help she needs...seriously.

And here I thought I was the only one ... great minds and all that. ;-)

There’s a video of her smoking a cigarette then blaming the poor guy next to her when confronted by the stewardess.

She was interviewed later and said that all ‘revolutionaries’ smoke.

She just wishes she had done more.

“How would you like minding your own business on a flight and the passenger next to you suddenly erupts as this one did?”

I might have seizures with my arms, or a sneezing fit.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Add her to the “do not fly list.”

[ozzymandus]

I saw a clip of her saying she smokes because Fidel does. Thanks again, Penn State.

>> How would you like minding your own business on a flight and the passenger next to you suddenly erupts as this one did? <<

She would probably have been "injured while resisting restraint".

Is this the same Penn State that invited Bill Ayers to speak, and employed Jerry Sandusky for many years?

[spodefly]

Penn State students are going in debt to get the education she was giving away for free on the plane ...

Flor de Cana syndrome.

Well that will make identification and roundup that much easier.

She’ll get a promotion to some State Dept. job cavorting about with horseface.
