Are you freaking KIDDING??? He is a PUNK KID who was having GAY SEX when the police came to get him!! Geesh...he doesn’t deserve one thing!
Ok, I don’t agree with the whole gay thing but that has nothing to do with what he did on the plane.
Slater is 39 years old, not quite a ‘punk kid’. As for your second statement, what does that have to do with anything?
Slater was completely irresponsible in his behavior on the plane. That’s what concerns me, not his homosexuality. But everything points to him having an alcohol problem, exacerbated by his personal stress/family concerns. However, safety comes first for airlines employees and they are entrusted to use emergency measures when needed for the safety of the passengers, not for their own personal use. I’m talking about deploying the slide. I don’t even mind him cursing the passenger, although it calls for discipline, but opening the plane is a huge taboo.
At least he is not all over the TV whining and claiming he be given some sort of special prviledge to throw a hissy fit on a plane because “gays have been persecuted for so long” or some thing.
He got mad, told the world to F off, and dashed out the exit with some beers. On the SLIDE no less!
There’s just something about that that I like...
Including jail, IMHO.
I think his employer has cause to sue for the cost, if any, of replacing that ramp and the two beers. He's a bad employee, not a criminal.
