And so it begins...

"Passenger killed by Air Marshal"

Instead of "Man threatening plane with bomb killed by Air Marshal"

[Windsong]

I am 100 percent sure they have never had an incident like this before,

This sounds like he isn't 100% sure, otherwise he would have stated "They have never had an incident like this before".

[NYCLCR]

A man on a flight from Colombia says he has a bomb and they land the plane in Miami and park the aircraft at the Jetway on the terminal!

What is wrong with these people?
Too bad they could not shoot him while in flight and dump his body over Cuba.

[dhuffman@awod.com]

Radio coverage included requests for 'understanding' and 'support' what ever the outcome of what will not be the best shoot in this First Class Citizen's 'career'. You or I might have done as well but we're mere citizens. I fear for the Union. I fear the Union.

And the lesson is: stay on your meds.

[Revolting cat!]

Another one? That's a third one already!

[A.A. Cunningham]

Wolf Ditzer asks: "Why didn't they use a taser?"

Ditzer is astonished that luggage that the dogs alerted to is being blown up the tarmac.

[ArmstedFragg]

Right by the book: He reaches for the cord, he dies.

[Revolting cat!]

And John Traavolta still sucks!

[TravisBickle]

How do we know it was really his wife saying "He has a bomb!", right after their argument?

An American Airlines passenger who claimed to be carrying a bomb

MEMO TO SELF: Avoid air travel when off meds!

[mikeus_maximus]

Sad, but here's a suggestion:

If you're mad as a hatter, don't get on a US plane. We're not messing around anymore.

[Final Authority]

I used to carry one of those things on every business trip to the engineering headquarters and I was sure careful to not call it by the acronym, BOM (bill of materials).

[NoControllingLegalAuthority]

The lesson is when an armed Air Marshal orders you to do something, you'd better do it!

[Mike Darancette]

By the end of the week this guy will be another innocent victim of the evil Bush's "War on Terror". They are already showing the smuck's picture all over the TV.

[commonasdirt]

I have not been on line for a day or two. What I fun I have missed. Doing my comparative reading on you peoples behalf I just went to DUmmieland to see what they are saying about the shooting There are many stories posted and this one was just the first:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x5540435

According to these peoples postings thie incident was even a staged event to distrct people from the Dem response to Pres. Bush's criticism of cut & run statements. LOL! Scrolling down from this story and reading others you get more and more of the same. LOL! Even that air marshalls should b e trained to take in a persons mental condition. Last but not least......the feds stole his meds beforehand. LOL! LOL!

But I gotta thank the DUmmies. I was off line becuase I am not feeling well. But laughter is indeed the best medicine.

The ACLU phones are probably ringing off the hook right now.

I smell about a dozen wrongful death suits in the making......"Trigger happy Air Marshall shoots unarmed mentally ill passenger"

[Semi Civil Servant]

Don't mess with a marshal.
