To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

I think it’s a crying shame for those stewards and stewardesses to hold down a 1 in 4,500 individual who is allergic to peanuts on the floor and pump peanuts down their throat. Just terrible I say!

It’s a bit more complicated than that.

I know a child with peanut allergy who went into anaphylactic shock and required emergency treatment when he inadvertently touched peanut butter on a school lunch table. True story.

He’s fine now, but it is, for those who have the allergy, a true matter of life and death.

There’s a smaller fraction who are so allergic, that merely inhaling small airborne peanut particles triggers a severe allergic reaction. However, that is a subset among those allergic to peanuts.
