This is *their* danger, they need to take whatever steps are necessary to protect themselves no matter what anyone else does.

They did take the necessary steps to protect themselves. They forbade passengers on the airplane from eating peanuts. One passenger ignored the warnings and commands and deliberately placed that child’s life in danger. That passenger should be arrested and charged with attempted murder.

Why was the girl not wearing an N95 mask and latex gloves? If anyone on the plane has a peanut or shellfish allergy, the whole plane has to not eat peanut or a shrimp entree?

I don't consider forbidding passengers to be an active response. This is like forbidding guns and being surprised when they are used anyways.

Let me get this straight. You will die if you smell peanuts and you are going to rely on passengers not being accidentally contaminated with peanuts to keep you alive?

Doesn't sound like a good plan to me.

One passenger ignored the warnings and commands and deliberately placed that child’s life in danger.

Because we know that nobody ate peanuts on that plane before the child arrived. Clearly, every trace of peanuts from previous passengers was removed by a thorough decontamination of the aircraft after every flight.

Every passenger getting onboard the airplane has not only been screened by TSA to make sure they are not a terrorist, but they have also been screened to make certain that none of them ate peanuts in any form, nor got any of it on their clothing.

Somehow I doubt any of that happens, and any child with such a severe allergy should not board a plane in which it is possible they may come into contact with peanut debris left in their seat, the seats next to them, on the floor, or any of the passengers.

Again, you and I have different ideas about what steps would be required to protect such a child from such a severe allergy.

I wouldn't rely on the passengers or the aircraft cleaning crew to protect the life of my child.

You’re utterly insane. You don’t understand logic, law or even simple common sense. Murder for eating peanuts? Come on man. It’s her allergy. People die of them all the time it happens. It’s death by natural causes not murder. The reaction is your OWN immune system. That isn’t murder.

Forbade? Is that a legal thing or is it just an order with no claws?
