The federal government has ordered a tougher crackdown on unruly airline passengers, directing states to prioritize prosecuting rowdy fliers as millions of Americans travel for Thanksgiving.

US Attorney General Merrick Garland issued the directive in a memo Wednesday, saying disorderly travelers are interfering with critical jobs of crews on airlines “that help ensure safe air travel.”

Just keep squeezing the population a little harder every time. Then when you relax the pressure by 50% that becomes the new normal. Over many years you can slowly change society to suit your goals. Frog meet pot.

I will never again board an aircraft. Even travelling abroad I would still go by oceangoing vessel.

—”once only the wealthy could afford to fly and now “the lower orders can afford it.”

A recent article noted that most airplane troublemakers could not afford to pay a fine.

I think that may be a codded message?

The passengers are getting hypoxic from mandatory muzzling.

They’re literally not in their right minds.

“...how bout a crackdown on blm/antifa?”

He can’t do THAT. Blm/antifa are the elite’s storm troopers. When something goes the wrong way (like an election or a jury decision) the bro’s get to riot. No police interference.

So are rowdy passengers more dangerous than parents who attend school board meetings? Really? I mean, what could be more dangerous than Americans voicing their opinions?

Guaranteed that the white law breakers will be punished to the full extent of the law, while the blacks will get a slap on the wrist.

I flew a fair amount for business from the mid-80s to the mid-90s. The airline flight experience had already devolved towards that of a bus trip by then.

People refusing to wear the face diapers, CRACK DOWN ON THESE MOBSTERS.... 3,800 instances of refusal to wear these diapers, and probably 1,500 instances of people being azzholes. How many real threats were there, or assaults?

Cities burn and this clown is focusing on a loud mouth drunk on an airplane.

The conformation hearings proved that this guy is a total flaming moron. Any one of us knows more about what’s going on in this country than this asshole.

How about making air travel pleasant again?
No more mask mandates for toddlers, no more waiting on the tarmac for 3 hours.

His mentor was Genrikh Yagoda, Stalin's executioner.

The tribe has their own dark secrets. Not just Marx and Trotsky.

The Britannica article soft pedals him. He was proud of personally executing 700+ Russians who were deemed enemies of the Soviet State.

How many people called Garland a moderate at the time of his Supreme Court nomination? All of them are abject liars.
