Sorry, maybe I worded that wrong. It was escorted to the airport and landed safely. A passenger gave a stewardess a threatening note. The pilot reported it, and 2 of our fighters kindly escorted the plane to an airport in Shreveport, I think.

Just another of those isolated incidents./sarcasm I really am sorry about the poor wording.

"just another of those isolated incidents"--I know what you mean, maybe the media is reporting more... my dad is in Chicago (I grew up there), and of course yesterday there was that "isolated incident" with the man who banged on the cockpit door and two F16 jets escorted the plane back to Chicago.
There are a lot of "isolated incidents". I guess this sort of fear is what Osama wants, but you know, we're not all that fearful; we might be for one news cycle (i.e., yesterday with reports of white powder all over the country), but then, we find out what really happened really quickly, and we're not afraid. So the "terrorists" are not winning, IMHO. Just going to be a long struggle.
