“I see no problem with otherwise lawful gun owners carrying their concealed firearm aboard a commercial mode of transport, airlines included. Since when does a person’s right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness end because a person travels aboard some non-private means of transport? Come on, fella’s, millions of lawfully (and many unlawfully) armed people carry everyday most everywhere. There isn’t blood running in the streets in most locales, and it certainly isn’t the lawfully armed shedding blood illicitly as well.”
This seems very libertarian. But with the nuts and ill-tempered loonies that fly these days, planes and bodies sucked through windows would be dropping out of the sky every week. I would hate to be on a flight under these rules where they ran out of biscuits or goldfish, or someone farted!
Libertarians always make the mistake that everyone is at least as logical, reasonable, and civilized as they are.
People want to kill each in mid flight other over masks. They don’t need a firearm to make it happen. Let them settle it on the ground where so many people aren’t in the way.
