Bye Bye individual rights. Hello "1984" and "Animal Farm". I didn't think it would happen in my lifetime but I knew it would happen. Hurray for the Denver pilot that announced over the plane's loudspeaker yesterday to wrestle to the ground and subdue anyone threatening to take over the plane. He told passengers that 200 could easily subdue 1 or even several. I am very unhappy to see that the new "air marshals" are being trained to force all passengers to the floor or their knees instead of training them to help...in fact we don't NEED "air marshals" on planes if passengers are encouraged to fight back. But our government wants a docile, unarmed, helpless and scared populace. And most American citizens are apparently obliging just fine. Freeus This is my worst possible nightmare. The beginning of a war that will NEVER end.
