A Nigerian man tried to light a powder aboard a commercial jetliner before it landed Friday in Detroit in what senior U.S. officials called an attempted act of terrorism.
Flight 253 with 278 passengers and 11 crew members aboard was 20 minutes from the airport when passengers heard popping noises, witnesses said. Passengers saw the attempted attack, and at least one of them jumped on the man and subdued him, airline officials and passengers said.
The man had “some kind of incendiary device he tried to ignite” in a bag strapped to his body, U.S. officials told NBC News.
Let’s hope that by “subdued” they meant “beat the crap out of.”
Fortunately, the best punishment for this jackhole it right at hand…

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
If airline security wasn’t ridiculous enough before this, I’m sure they’ll put an extra billion or two in to see that it is.

Per the TSA, now you must sit quietly in your seat for the final hour of your flight without access to the lav or your carry on baggage.

“Among other things, during the final hour of flight customers must remain seated, will not be allowed to access carry-on baggage, or have personal belongings or other items on their laps.”
Now that’s just… stupid. Telling business people they can’t tap away on their laptops, kids can’t watch their DVD players, people can’t read books… yeah, this’ll work out just fine.
