Thankfully the usurper banned radical islamic terrorists from threatening to blow up the planes.

From the article:

“The eight passengers on Delta flight 2148 to Tampa subdued Stanley Dwayne Sheffield, 46, who was taken into federal custody after the plane landed at 1:30 a.m. Friday.”

And yes, I do care....bothers me that if it was indeed terrorism, that fact will be glossed over by the MSM.

His picture is on the video.
I don’t think this guy was “amish”
more than likely he was either intoxicated or forgot to take his medication for some type of psychological problem.

Being a former old school baseball manager...Kennedy probably had an arsenal of dirt-shoveling kicks and precise tobacco spitting moves to draw upon.

Thank you. I did see that after I posted. Perhaps he wasn’t taking his medication.

Points off of Kennedy’s score. The terrorist is reported to have only minor injuries. Some bozo tried this on a Southwest flight a few years ago. Upon landing, the body was removed from the plane.

"Subdued? Disappointing. Should be dead."

Agreed! Since eight people were needed to assist, there should have been eight pieces of this scum.
