As if air travel weren’t already dangerous and infuriating enough…

It’s past time to have a central database of these morons and place them on the DHS no-fly list. Oh and put their sorry butts in a cage for 3 to 7 years.

Another says, “Hsu stated that he became scared because an impact to his head in its current state could cause him severe injury or death.”
The FBI wrote Hsu told them in an interview he was playing football during the time between the brain surgery and the flight.
I really can’t wait to hear that part of the cross-examination…

As much as it sounds like a good idea, the no-fly list is a black box with no accountability, which I don’t like. Gimme some transparency and accountability and I can get on board with it.

I wouldn’t necessarily mind a centralized list that is populated by the airlines themselves of people they’ve kicked off flights, banned, etc. as long as it has accountability and a means of appeal for getting put on the list.

Even if he somehow managed to find an airliner devoid of witnesses and skate out of everything else; he’s probably going to end up regretting talking to the feds.
The good Popehat has the specifics.

Being able to afford to fly first fucking class doubtless gets him a wee bit of privilege, tho.

Money matters, but not as much as White privilege.

I doubt there will be one. His attorney would be stupid to let him testify with that waiting to be explored.
Expect a good deal of legal maneuvering to get what he said to the FBI suppressed as well.
Yes, of course.
