I am really and truly sick of these idiots and their arrogance and belligerence

flying is a privilege, not a right. Get serious about enforcing the law against threatening behavior- as defined by the aircrew. Put them on do-not-board list for US carriers.

Then let them swim back or find seats on Air Egypt or Saudia

“flying is a privilege, not a right.”

Like driving? How about walking? Running? Taking the bus?

Imagine telling a frontiersman that riding a horse is a priviledge, not a right!

A citizen of the United States has a public right of transit through the navigable airspace. To further that right, the Secretary of Transportation shall...before prescribing a regulation or issuing an order or procedure that will have a significant impact on the accessibility of commercial airports or commercial air transportation...

(U.S. Code, Title 49, Sec. 40103, Section a[2])

Yep, we don’t have a right to fly *rolls eyes*
