In a sane world, that man would not leave the plane looking too good. I doubt he is immune from gravity, the passengers would undoubtedly consider throwing him from the plane thoughtfully.
Thankfully, it’s a no smoking flight.

People with diplomatic immunity chartering private planes?
What could possibly go wrong?
To: Freedom4US
Well we could require them to pay for a US Marshall to fly with them (at least from nations we don’t trust...like all but Israel from the Middle East).

Why not ... our traitor in chief basically gave the green light to his buddys ... we are fair game. I will be glad when he is realized as the same ...

In a normal world, all diplomats from qatar would be on a no fly list from now on. But no. Instead we’ll step up fingernail clipper confiscations from little old ladies from idaho.

And that little old lady would be subject to a full body scan or pat-down...
Hmm and full body scans...wonder if he had to go thru a scanner or if he was waived thru due to diplomat status?! Surprised that WASHINGTON DC would not have one of the new scanners?!

Years ago, it was rumored the soviets had assembled a nuclear device at their US embassy, all the parts smuggled in diplomatic pouch. Hm.
To: MamaDearest
The passenger was a Diplomat with immunity....I bet he walked right through, wouldn’t want to upset a “Diplomat”.

A Slurpee would be great, unfortunately I live in DaleyObamastan but I will begin filling out the paperwork to see if my diet manager will allow me to include a Slurpee in my next meal plan.

OK, if true it's probably the Amish or the Quakers. Methinks we need to "target" those two groups. Right, Madame Sec. of Homeland Security?

Would not be surprising. If not a great movie plot it would make :(
Personally, I feel sooo less safe these days :(

Oh you can sleep well, America, but only if that guy was properly mirandized. Oh wait - he’s a “diplomat”. Never mind.
Wonder if he pays his parking tickets?
To: dragnet2
So, it *was* a non-smoking flight!
Hm.
