If you’re flying, PLEASE REMEMBER THIS!

NO JOKES! About the following:
Bombs!
Knifes!
Threats of ANY kind!

In my state, Missouri, we can hold anyone for 20 hours for criminal investigation.
We don’t give a damn who you are! However, you still have the right to tell the Judge, FBI and local law enforcement why your joke was so funny!

Things have changed. The Airport Law Enforcement will not put up with any toejam.
Threats and jokes SHALL be treated as a crime.

Direct or indirect threats towards ANY airline or airline personnel SHALL be considered as a threat against the American Air System.

Bottom line....don't be an bellybutton at the airport. Get there early and please at be civil towards others.... that includes law enforcements officers that have their orders

FYI

One thing has definitely changed.

The terrorists exploited the fact that we typically are told to stay calm and follow the orders of the hijackers. In the past, they directed the aircraft to land somewhere and if you stayed calm there was a good chance you would survive the encounter.

Today, it's all different. I pity the poor bastard that thinks he can take over an aircraft. There are plenty of passengers that will not hesitate to rip off his head and toejam down his neck.

I know I will or I'll die trying.

Good point Sandman!

Once inside the aircraft...Everyone will be looking out for the welfare flight crew.
I believe the flying public will never again act as sheep during a skyjacking situation again.

Just postponed my European honeymoon today. Looks like the good old Wisconsin Dells for a few day now -- Whoopee

I didn't want to give in to the bastards and cancel, but my family and fiancee finally talked some sense into me. Even if the planes are flying by Sunday it's going to be one hell of a mess getting around for some time to come.

Ah well, nobody still alive today with a roof over his/her head has much room to complain about inconvenience.

That's my point... Go to jail, do not pass GO, do not collect $200. Tell the Judge why it's so funny.

They came so diddlying close to lynching a bunch of celebrating arabs outside the Hospitlat today. They had already thrown the rope and were ready to do it when the police arrived. They left the lynchers alone and pratically kicked the arabs into the police car on the grounds of protecting them then ran em off the the station i hear their holding them for their on and the publics protection for an indefinite amount of time(i guess this means till thier lawyer can get them out.)

unbelievable!
i guess this proves out what i was taught as a kid-
"there's always at least 1 more handsomehunk than you counted on"

Im torn personally on that issue i dont know i really sorta thnk the diddlyers should be lynced but would rather not do it myself.

I absolutely disagree. No one deserves to be lynched. This is America. Freedom of expression, no matter how tasteless, is guaranteed by the Constitution.

As much as I may disagree with their opinion, I will defend their right to express it.

he's right. if we let the skinheads and neo-nazis and KKK have their freedom to speak, we have to let those who enjoyed the disaster speak as well.

However, to me at least, cheering the deaths of your fellow American citizens is borderline on treason in my eyes. There is only one punishment for treason. If the people cheering here are NOT American citizens, revoke their green cards, visas, or whatever and put them on a boat back to their country.

What i meant was that in my heart i really want them dead. But i know as do you that i cant do that. Cuz if you let the other bastards speak its only fair(and fair is hardly something these bastards deserve) that these Arabs get to diddlying speak their mind.
