An armed citizen would act.... the question is whether it was smart to put him there armed. I don't know.

No, I believe the question is; Why can't American citizens be trusted?

Maybe someone let some rats get off the ships?

Well, we run all over town armed. I drive up and down I-75 armed. I am armed at home, at the mall sometimes, in crowded and lonely situations. Is being armed in a plane inherently different from any other crowded situation?

I suppose some extra training on just what not to hit (besides other innocents, of course) might be necessary, since a plane does have some additional vulnerabilities. But otherwise, the situation isn't all that different from carrying at the local mall.
