This columnist has a new source beyond what's been reported in the last week. She also wrote about John Kerry during the 2004 campaign season, and was a speaker at the Kerry Lied Rally that September in Washington, DC.

The muzz do this intentionally; they want to intimidate non-muzz. It gets their rocks off. They are the most arrogant, intolerant people on the planet. And they are headed for a smackdown of major proportions.

Remember the “Flying Imams” from awhile back: they sued everyone who complained plus the airline, and I think they won. Evidently, it’s profitable for the enemy to behave this way on a flight.

I was skeptical of this incident before - now I’m not. More and more witnesses are coming forward.

Thanks for posting.

I dare the sheetheads to try this when I’m on a plane.

The minute one side starts flinging “right wing racists” around, I start to get real interested on the other side.
I think most Americans are informed enough, motivated enough and fed up enough to assert themselves in a situation that might endanger them and disregard the political correctness that endangers all of us.
I’m proud of the passengers who took action and refused to accept any intimidation be it either by other passengers or airline officials.

The only thing that’s going to stop all the disinformation is for the public to stand up for the truth. Call the airlines. Air Tran’s PR number is 678 254-7441 and tell them you’re tired of the lies and the shifting of blame for the incident off the perpetrators and onto passengers who choose to tell their story, however exagerated it might be. Air Tran owes it to their customers to issue a new statement explaining the incident, without singling out one passenger, calling him a liar, whether he was on the plane or not. They should not have covered up the realities on Nov. 18 and now they are going to pay a price. Bad PR man.

All Americans need to be committed to raising Air Posses next time this happens. Want to cure this once and for all...25 Partiots creating a mohammedan corpse might do the trick...

When the cops ask what happened just say, he slipped..

Put them down early and pay the price for your actions later. I’m not gonna put up with this whether it is “trial run” or just a way to intimidate.

Bring it on, I say!

Oh, and anyone can send this to TSA (with whom I am registered) and the FBI, I think they may have a few common sympathies with me...

You would think after 9/11 these scum would get it; but then we have the Muslim in the WH.

Remember the “Flying Imams”
*******

Yes, they settled their claims a few month ago and received monetary compensation.

The attorneys for those who were sued filed motions to have the cases dismissed. When the court denied the motions and decided not to dismiss the cases, the parties then agreed to settlements. That’s my recollection of it off the top of my head.

The first time I read of this incident, (earlier this week) I immediately thought of that prior event.

Wow.

Because of groups like CAIR and the “flying Imans”, certain DISGUSTING individuals think that they can INTIMIDATE AND SUE, in addition to trying to make Americans and American companies so afraid to speak up, that the next attack, JUST LIKE NIDAL HASAN, was allowed to happen because of PC. PEOPLE ARE DEAD BECAUSE OF PC.

Yes, I’m angry.

“And then, amazingly, all but two were allowed to reboard for the trip to Houston. “

Has there been any mention of what happened with these two who weren’t allowed back on?

Good grief. Why do you think the magical “terrorists” were allowed to reboard and travel? This whole thing has been debunked — the Petruna fellow was not even on the plane. How gullible can people be?
