Problem is that WE pay for stupidity.

There are plenty of armed pilots around (I know - I was one). Lucky the Feds didn’t end up with a hot lead injection.

Now that's funny - just thought I'd let you know.

PC, as predicted, is killing comedy, free speech and robbing us of the ability to say anything without offending someone, somewhere in the world that can gang up on you and ruin your life for stating your opinion or an irrefutable truth.

Sad times.

“Sue the chit out of the agents and the FBI.”

Only problem with suing is that taxpayers pay for FBI malfeasance. Guilty agents should be accountable for the cost of their action. A solution must be crafted so as to “encourage the others”; “pour encourager les autres”.

I hope to see a seven figure lawsuit. This kind of crap has to stop.

He should sue them, and every single supervisor up to the level of Director, for violating his civil rights under color of law. They will be PERSONALLY liable.

NO WARRANT! Great trading exercise. The only real crime was committed by the FBI. Was any agent arrested and charged?

Thanks. I’m funny. I have always told jokes and insulted assholes as I beat the shit out of them.

My fraternity brothers always thought that was a unique gift I had. A lot of times I explained that they should have walked away and now, because they didn’t, I’m gonna not break their arm or their nose but I’m gonna smear dirt in their face and break their face if I ever see them again.

Seriously, it took them way too long to realize they had the wrong guy.

They probably needed no more than 5 minutes to figure out it was the wrong room.

Then another 40 minutes of interrogation, NCIS searches and luggage searching to finally conclude they couldn't come up with anything to charge him with, for a bargaining chip in the inevitable lawsuit.

Like, maybe he uses the wrong pronoun on one of them.

“Why, I strongly object to this treatment, my good man!”

“Man? I’m a lady! You are hereby charged with mispronouning!”

The agents handcuffed him and placed him in the shower.

Well that's certainly professional of them.

Not buying this. A training exercise? In a real hotel? BS meter is smoking.

BIG lawsuit coming.

Apology, my foot.

And these keystone cops are supposed to be protecting us from what exactly?

Disband and defund the entire organization. Let them learn to code.

The pilot’s first mistake was opening the door.

Exactly. Someone knocks on my hotel room door at that hour, I am not opening the door for them.

If I ever have to stay in a hotel room again, that is.

“Let them learn to code.”

Please, Just No.

I know something about code, the Web Platform would not be the same without my work.

if anything they should be banned from using all tech.

I would think the hotel could be sued to smithereens as well.
