Until it's time to pull the trigger, when they don't care anymore.

I don`t know when the guns were pulled, it may have been late into the incident. The best I have heard , the guns were pulled when the man went for his bag.
I am sure these Marshal`s are well trained and followed procedures for an incident like this. Time will tell if this was the case. Maybe they will need to make some changes after its all said and done.

This is why I think people with medical conditions that may result in odd behavior should have to provide the airline with some kind of information about their condition. But the ACLU will no doubt try to squash that in the courts.
The airlines have cracked down on the people boarding planes who appear intoxicated because of previous incidences with drunks on planes. Maybe this needs to be looked into as well with mental health conditions?
The way I see it, this is a freak incident, very rare , and may even happen again one day. Its just going to be one of those risks people are going to have to put up with to keep airlines safe.
I don`t see a viable solution either.....
