Ann...Even some drunk guy has the common sense to know how to stop moslums from blowing up passenger jets. Political correct
politicians will likely get innocent people killed and there are so many young people brainwashed in the ways of the politically correct.

Friend of 7/7 victim in air rage outburst about Muslims

Air rage: Anthony Jones was given a suspended four-month prison sentence and community service after a drunken mid-air rant against Muslims
A computer expert was yesterday spared jail for a drunken air-rage rant against Muslims – after a court heard his best friend had been killed in the 7/7 bombings.

Anthony Jones, 31, launched a foul-mouthed outburst, saying Muslims should not be allowed on planes because ‘they blow people up’, after downing four cans of Stella Artois on a flight from Shanghai to Heathrow.

He had resorted to alcohol after running out of tranquilisers, which he had been taking on the 13-hour flight to control his nerves.

He said after his friend, Fiona Stephenson, a lawyer, died in the Aldgate Tube bombing on July 7, 2005, he had developed severe anxiety and a terror of flying.

In a series of foul-mouthed rants while travelling with his Chinese wife and baby son he racially abused Muslims and said ‘they blew up my friend’. He also told a stewardess he would ‘get her the sack’.

Jonathan Whitley, prosecuting, told Isleworth Crown Court the first eight hours of the flight on March 26 this year passed uneventfully. But Jones became increasingly agitated.

Ross Borrows, mitigating, said of Miss Stevenson: ‘She was a very close friend and indeed a neighbour’s daughter and that had a significant impact on Mr Jones.’

Jones had gone to China after his wife bought tickets so their son could meet her parents.The IT worker, of Great Baddow, Essex, was given a suspended four-month prison sentence and community service.
Judge Andrew Johnson told him he would have been jailed were it not for the fact that his outburst had been caused by his mental condition.
