IF that's true.....and all the guy said was he had a bomb and they killed him....I think the marshall is going to be in some big trouble.

Fox showing passengers leaving plane with their hands on their heads!

Well those are precautions that need to be taken when a guy is threatening to blow up a plane

Remember .. there were more then 1 hijacker on each of the planes on 9/11

Oh wait .. I'm suppose to sound like a liberal .. we should wait and see if there are more possible bombers

As for the wife ... HELLO .. Why didn't she say anything ?

Last night on CSPAN, they had a "hearing" about Katrina, prompted by Cynthia McKinney of all people, and the women, to a person, all testified UNDER OATH that the military killed anybody who walked outside in New Orleans and then went on CNN and bragged about it.

When Chris Shays dared to ask for proof, they openly mocked him and questioned his intelligence.

It was amazing.

From reply 495:

In an events such as this, air marshals consider everyone on board the plane a suspect, a precaution because they don't know for sure how many people are involved.

If he was really out of control due to mental illness, I feel sorry for him, but it's not the air marshals' fault that someone this crazy was allowed to board a commercial airliner. Worse yet, his wife knew he was mentally ill and off his meds, and didn't do anything to prevent this tragedy.

Actually, having been on a couple of flights with folks that "went nutz" over the years and watching the crew handle them, a little warning might be a good idea. People might just list diabetic conditions, mental disorders requiring medication (I say that being a diabetic myself -- well controlled but one never is 100% sure). Usually, in my experience, the flight crew handles things well, a couple of instances were scary.

92. So they shot a crazy person who was freaking out.... AGAIN!

Sounds like a description that might fit your average homicide bomber.

Guess the libs just want us to wait and see which ones are actually wired for slaughter.

That's what I figured; better safe than sorry, since we know they travel in groups, right?

Shep is now asking Herridge if it is required for people who have emotional disorders to be registered as such when flying.

Oh great, who defines emotional disorders? Would this say that all DUer's should be registered? What other 'disorder's' would need to be registered? Slippery slope. . .

As much as that incident led to a tragic loss of life, it clearly had an effect on wanna-be terrorists in the UK. At least, there were reports that when one of the would-be second-wave Underground bombers was apprehended, he was very vocal about not wanting to be shot by the arresting officers. He might not have originally believed that Police would shoot to kill in the UK, but he had no doubt after that incident. Perhaps this incident will have a salutary effect, too...

I know they're nuts over there. But the first excerpt you posted looked pretty reasonable.
