Passengers tie up, hold down unruly passenger on diverted Detroit flight
FOX 5 NY ^ | 8 Jan 2016

He says it started when a young woman began yelling at a flight attendant and ripped off her necklace. A criminal complaint names Breanna Farquharson as the woman, and says the flight attendant got a small scratch on her lip when that happened. The criminal complaint says Farquharson also assaulted a passenger by grabbing the passenger's shirt collar and necklace, and broke the necklace.

Fitzsimmons and the criminal complaint state that he and a few other passengers then ran to Farquharson and helped hold her down, while she kept yelling and rambling on about various things.

The name of the idiot is pretty much a dead giveaway.

Could be. I was just wondering if she was saying God is great, in a different language, whether she speaks any other words in that language or not. Make sense to you?

I’m still not getting it.

Are you saying you think this crazy woman speaks Arabic?

Still don’t get it. There was nothing in the story about her using that phrase or speaking Arabic.

Come on. You guys are killin me. See post 10. I know quite a few phrases and words in Tagalog, but I can’t carry on a conversation in Tagalog. One does not have to speak fluent Arabic to say Allahu Akbar. Did I say she spoke Arabic? No. Did I say she actually said Allahu Akbar? Again, no. Go back to post 7. I said I wondered, not I know. It is as simple, as wondering if she is a member of the ROP.

I guess what I don’t understand is what in the world would make you think she’s Muslim. Her name is Anglo and none of the stories suggest that she was speaking Arabic.

Oh, I get it now. You don’t realize Farquharson is a Scottish surname.

I was simply wondering. That's all. Just wondering. I had no idea. I still don't have any idea. I am just wondering. Is she a Muzzie? I don't know. I may never know. I am just wondering.
I don't think about names much. The pressure cooker bombers had names that I would not have thought were out of the ordinary, but look what they did.
When a flight is disrupted, I automatically wonder what the motive is. That's all. I just wonder.

The Boston Marathon bombers had names which were obviously Chechen. Do you spend a lot of time in Chechnya?

At this point, there’s more evidence that YOU are Muslim than there is that the woman on the plane is a Muslim...

LOL, actually, it wasn’t even the name that made me wonder. I have no idea what kind of a name that is. I just wonder, when I see someone trying to hijack an aircraft, or disrupt it. I don’t know if even those two ideas were in her mind. Maybe she is just crazy, and has nothing to do with anything else. Here is another suspicion I have. If she has anything to do with the ROP, it will get buried, and we will never hear about it again. Make sense?

You don’t get to be mentally ill on a plane anymore.

If you’re mentally ill you keep it buttoned up until the plane lands and everyone is off.

Anti anxiety meds, alcohol, and altitude in the cabin pressurized to of 10,000 feet can make even a sane sensible pax do some crazy stuff.
