In the week after a Tampa, Fla. judge struck down the federal transportation mask mandate, onboard airline incidents by unruly passengers dropped a whopping 57 percent according to the Federal Aviation Administration...

The 15-month-old mandate was rescinded last month by a federal judge, who said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had no such authority to institute such a mandate on commercial planes, trains and buses.

The Department of Justice said it would appeal the verdict, but there have not been any public actions taken in the last two weeks.

Only 57%? I thought it would be higher than that.

Snowflakes just could not deal with wearing a mask.

I have been on Southwest and Delta since masks went away - the Gestapo Flight attendants who were screaming at passengers and making threats to have everyone arrested are now smiling and trying to be friendly. It is weird.

No sensible person could deal with wearing a worthless, dirty masks. We should burn the masks as well as anyone who calls for mask mandates (or at least tar and feather them).

Karens and Kens can wear the face diapers voluntarily if they wish - makes it easy to identify the enemy.

I agree it’s truly bizarre. They created a completely hostile circumstance and now pretend we’re all friends. Southwest was the worst and surprisingly Spirit was the best

Who’d a thunk that removing that extra stress of a big brother type mentality of everyone watching you making sure you are properly donning a useless piece of clothe or paper, that most people knew was useless; adding to the stress of travel; would then cause people to calm down a bit.
Or something like that. I’m not snowflake, and I control myself very well, but wearing that useless piece of crap on my face absolutely raised my stress/anger/rebellious streak.

I had two launderable masks.

One read “Trump 2020.”

The other read “Let’s Go Brandon.”
