I hate flying. It's claustrophobic and noisy and uncomfortable and the air is bad. On a train, at least, you can get up and walk around without some air waitress telling you to sit down and buckle up. Still, I recognize flying as a necessary evil in these times, and I do my best to dope myself up and deal with it.

But if I had been on this flight, I would never fly again. Ever. I can't imagine anything more harrowing. I could deal with a hijacking before something like that. Fucking hell, the captain is behind a bulletproof door, and who the hell knows what he's going to do? He could fly into a mountain! What the hell does he care, he's "SAVED"!

I wouldn't have to fake a heart attack to bring about an emergency landing. I'd actually HAVE one. As well as leave brown stains on the seat. And puke on the tray table.

And I would wait until the pilot debarked and SLAP HIM CROSSEYED.

Wait, the FAA is NOT investigating!?

Some dude gets up to use the bathroom 20 minutes out of LAX and he gets charged with a felony. This guy starts talking about religion and how great it is to be Christian and the FAA doesn't even want to ask this guy a few follow-ups?

I mean, if he'd been extolling the virtues of Islam, the plane would've been shot out of the sky.

Exactly. Every passenger on the plane would have bumrushed the cockpit and beaten the pilot to death.
