The bad thing about this is it's being treated more as a joke because the bomb didn't go off and it set the guy's pants on fire. This is an attempt at terror though be it small but an attempt!!

I think you misread it. It didnt happen again, they just took a second person from the same flight on christmas into custody. they arrested the guy who tried to light something and another guy who locked himself in the bathroom when the plane was landing.

Me? No no I know this was two separate incidents, I was referring to the Christmas day episode when I posted not this one, I posted my thoughts because of this one.

haha no, i was referring to the original post. maybe i am misunderstanding the article. the way i understand it is the first guy had an accomplice. almost like the guy didnt want to be caught too so he tried hiding in the bathroom.

Nah I think you are reading it wrong Glory. The picture caption says it happened on Sunday. I think when it says the same flight in the article in means that the planes run the same routes everyday so it was the same one as the one on Christmas. It is written pretty confusing though.

Might it have something to do with the Detroit area having the highest concentration of Muslims in America?

How did this guy get on board?

Me, I get my lotion taken away from me.

Yeah, like I'm going to say something like: "In the name of Allah, I take this plane".............squirt

I was at DTW this afternoon and was in a plane waiting for 45 minutes Flight crew said they had to unload cargo because of weights and balances issues, but who really knows.

Dear skank:

In time, I will pay you back for that remark.

What did I ever say to you?

Watch your back!

And get YOUR lotion ready!

Ha ha ha ha ha

Sincerely - BRF

p.s. - that Fat Guy pic is absurd! OMG! (I like looking at the guy to his right's "pose"!)

p.s.s. - you tell it like it is, Glory Days!

The guy wasn't trying to do anything, he was just sick and happened to also be Nigerian. The flight crew was obviously extra cautious though given the recent events.

My brother is a U.S. Air Marshall. He was home for xmas and I asked him about what happened. He said if there would have been a Marshall on that flight. There would have been 1 single bullet in that dudes head. I found that to be AWESOME!!!!! To bad there wasn't one on that flight!!!!

You think the towel-heads don't have the cash and intel sources to know which filghts do & don't have Marshalls?

???? Maybe I'm very naive but I would think our intelligence would be a bit better than theirs. And also, I'd pay you 1 million dollars if you could spot my brother on a plane and know he's a marshall.
