This is like whole screaming covid mask Nazi’s. EVERYONE in some store or supermarket should have to wear a mask because THEY are especially vulnerable.

[humblegunner]

Putting off a peanut snack a couple hours is not going to destroy that guy’s life. He was selfish and rude.

Or wee Poppy was faking the "attack" for attention.

Coddling the weak only gets you more weaklings.

I'd have tossed peanuts at her like a circus elephant.

People who think they have a right to tell other people what to eat are Democrats.

There are nicer people in the world than FR.

No there aren't.

Would you like some peanuts?

[The_Media_never_lie]

Seems to me, if you’re on the airplane and you eat peanuts you could kill someone and not even know it. Not worth the risk. /s

[Ann Archy]

Shut up you jerk.....maybe you would have wanted this little girl DEAD....you would probably love to see her suffer.
You are the most DISGUSTING thing on FR.

[BiglyCommentary]

This is the answer. All should watch. :)

Guilty.

[The_Media_never_lie]

If the dude was really about to kill the girl with the peanuts, why didn’t someone simply snatch the bag from him? Maybe they were afraid that the bag might go off on somebody in another Direction? There’s a lot of blame going on in this report.

[Ann Archy]

You are also DISGUSTING...do you not know one person with a serious allergy to peanuts???
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO FREEPERS?

“Could the peanut eating passenger be charged with attempted murder?”

Maybe the parents wanted their daughter dead and wanted to blame the airline. It is very irresponsible for them to take her on a flight. Youd have a tough time proving the source of whatever allergic reaction she had. Maybe her mom did it?

The girl should have an isolation suit or equivalent filtration to protect her.

Does the mom have Munchausen syndrome or does she simply not love her daughter enough to care to protect her?

Sounds like a lawsuit scam to me.

I stand prepared to withstand all the “Female of the Species” attacks coming my way.

I would agree with you all on travel by air for these persons with allergies. My grandson to my knowledge has never flown. When I said ‘air’ I meant it in the sense of the local environment. It was in a cafeteria where his reaction occurred. Someone had evidently thrown peanuts on the floor or something.

[DiogenesLamp]

That was my first thought but I held off since most here have no clue what it is or how this situation is possibly a manifestation of Munchausen by Proxy.

Far too women have turned their children into little dollies, from turning them into homosexual transvestites to helicopter parents to hypochondriacs.

Yes. Too much going around lately.

Oh good grief. Isn’t there a blogger somewhere to harass?

[ronniesgal]

at least he’s not yelling all the time.

> People who think they have a right to tell other people what to eat are Democrats. <

I actually saw it differently: People who selfishly put themselves first are Democrats.

I see the peanut guy as the selfish one. Others might see the mom as the selfish one. Both viewpoints have some merit.

[humblegunner]

Little Poggy and her Lawsuit Mum are total bloggers.

We'd never have heard of this nonsense otherwise.

[Kartographer]

So say I have one of my favorite from childhood peanut butter and molasses sandwiches before my flight am I responsible? Should peanut butter and peanuts be banned as a public health risk? I mean someone that allergic one could have any kind of completely innocence inter action and cause an attack. Same some on here are all but ready to tear down Booker T Washington statues over this!!

They didn’t just get immunity, they got the friggin’ chicken pox!
