Why was this guy still alive after being stopped trying to get into the cockpit?

Because he wasn’t riding on Southwest (or, for that matter, Tianjin), I suppose.

Eggs Ackley. And impeach and remove ANY judge on any court that does not support that solution.

Also may want to dump body overboard in case he has a bomb secreted on him somewhere

You are right; of course; when you say cannon.

When I wrote MINI, I should have explained the caliber of weapon I was thinking of.

And if I implied to hose the plane down with an Uzi; I apologize for that as well.

If the liner can transmit the location of just where the perp is on the plane...

...a smart weapon could auto-aim on the planes side (or top; for that matter) in a spot that is not very vulnerable to hit something vital to the planes flying.


Remember; we are NOT trying to put the perp gently to sleep without waking others; but to find an alternative to having to kill EVERYONE on board!

Coming over the TOP of the liner would be better, as the perp would not even know the other plane was THERE!

Plus; shooting thru the side of the plane could line a lot of folks in a row to be hurt or killed.

From the top; not very many would be in the direct line of fire.
