“Murder is okay but not martinis.”

They wipe themselves with their hand but think that dogs and pigs are unclean.

"They wipe themselves with their hand but think that dogs and pigs are unclean."

Do they use the left or right or are they switch hitters?

Spray can, are you kidding, they wouldn’t let me bring home a candle from Bozeman to CT. The inspectors removed my candle and when I went through the same candle was for sale in the shop!!

Yes, it is very strange, I think they are probing.

I agree.

Thank you .. damn Amish .. I swear, they’re
distracting us, preparing for a completely
different kind of attack. God protect and
save us.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From the pilot:

“Once airborne there are limited options. Talking to the flight attendants and moving seats is basically all you can do. A divert takes time and would be a major emergency. On the flight I diverted for security issues we had an F-16 on our tail, ready to shoot us down if we didn’t immediately land.”

Better yet, turn up the vacuum on the toilet when they go to the restroom on the aircraft...

U.S. woman in airplane toilet ordeal

High-pressure vacuum flush sealed woman to toilet seat

OSLO, Jan. 21, 2002 — An American woman had no need to fasten her seatbelt on a flight from Scandinavia to the United States after a high-pressure vacuum flush sealed her to the toilet seat of the transatlantic airliner. The woman filed a complaint with Scandinavian Airlines System after her ordeal on a Boeing 767 flight last year.

She got sucked in after pushing the flush button while seated, activating a system to clean the toilet by vacuum, the airline said on Monday.

“She could not get up by herself and had to sit on the toilet until the flight had landed so that ground technicians could help her get loose,” a SAS spokeswoman said. “She was stuck there for quite a long time.”

Test run.

These guys are all over the place.

These are tests of our systems to figure out what they can get away with.

There is no chance all the Mohammeds of the last couple of weeks disrupting flights are a coincidence.

It is conditioning. Saturate the system with non-incidents to dull the senses.

Then attack with a different ploy. The victim is busy defending against the non-incidents and is easily overpowered.

They were described as “white Englishmen,” but I don’t know what the threat was. The plane was still at the gate and supposedly they were drunk and rowdy. Maybe the flight attendants told them to sit down and they got obnoxious or something like that. The Heathrow incident does seem to be a genuine case of disruptive passengers.
