"James Lineberger, a Philadelphia common pleas judge who was sitting diagonally from the detained man, said he thought the marshal held his semiautomatic weapon on passengers for too long. The flight was headed from Atlanta to Philadelphia with 183 people on board. ...Other passengers, however, said they thought the marshals handled the situation calmly and professionally."

With the little I know about this incident, I'd say Lineberger is a Lib'ral Nutjob, with a very pro-tort lawyer judicial style...I shall lurk anxiously to see if my first impression proves accurate.

The sky marshal did the right thing. We are at war with people trying to kill us and these guys are crying "foul" and want to sue and pursue it because the guy frightened them because he traine his gun on passengers for 30 minutes. He was doing his job in order to protect the lives of everyone on the plane.
