How could they let him have 15?
Why is no one blaming whoever sold him or gave him the booze?

Well you know how it goes, you sit down and you're shootin' the bull and you can just rip through that crap. I'm not a big wine person but Doc Otis hard lemonade does me that way. I'm ripping away and before you know it there's two of me or something... And cheap-a$$ tequila. Doesn't take as much of that stuff though...

Give me a break! Granted, he was behaving in a childish manner, but that doesn't make him a child. You have to give individuals the chance to screw up their own lives, preferably in a public manner so that we can point and laugh at them.

Thank God for small favors. I hate things like making bartenders responsible for the actions of a drunk. No one is responsible for anyone else.

i agree. this poor man, whom many of us is ridiculing, is a victim of his environment. as a multi-millionaire, he can have anything he wants. as a rock star, he believes that everyone worships the ground that he walks on. further he was in first class for 8.5 hours where the drinks are free. is it his fault that he took advantage of the situation?

shame on you all -- he has feeling too!

The childish , musically-inclined millionaire is over 21 and arguably an adult. He is totally responsible for how much he drank and everything he did. The airline ought to sue the stupid and arrogant freak for all he has or ever will get; and every passenger on that flight ought to seek a piece of him in a class-action suit. It is about time that, as a minimum, stupid disruptors also end up quite impoverished. The potential civil penalties for gross stupidity and immaturity could be much more severe than the paltry criminal penalties, and should be invoked.
