I’ll give it a try: If the U.S. can’t secure the airline for you, be prepared to do it yourself, like this passenger did.

Why are we paying for the US to protect us, it seems they continue to fail.

Thank you. Yes! I agree with your assessment. Just as the passengers took decisive action on board flight 93, and again passengers acted decisively when Richard Reid attempted to ignite explosives contained within his shoe, this citizen/warrior engaged an enemy without hesitation, literally climbing over 4 other passengers in order to physically engage a mortal threat. Others may have acted (eventually) but this passenger had the frame of mind of a sheepdog, and acted out of instinct. A good lesson for all of us to learn from. Strike hard/strike fast!

Good to see that you are still sitting up and taking nourishment.
