Well if they are scrambling F-16s for every drunk on a flight, you’ll be hearing about it once or twice a day.

Seems like a lot of tax money to make sure a guy doesn’t vomit with extreme prejudice on a stewardess.

Maybe they are scrambling jets every time this happens to keep everyone sharp and make sure the system is working. Just a thought.

wouldnt it just be cheaper and more effective to have armed security on every flight ?

how does it help to shoot down a passenger plane just to save the white house from getting crashed into

but then again I am predjudiced , because 150 innocent civilians have much more value to me than the white house or any other government icon
