    The pilots, crew and ATC are just awesome. We can’t fathom how these folks protect us on each and every flight…. Thank you guys. The professionalism and compassion you show each and every day is never recognized but never undervalued……
    We think flying a plane is like getting on a bus…. Not even close…. These folks and many many more protect and help us in ways we will never understand…

      It’s insulting when people compare a pilot to a bus driver. If in fact flying an aircraft was like driving a bus, bus drivers would line up to fly planes and make six figure incomes. The education and training requirements for becoming a pilot is no joke. Not to mention the BS that comes with dealing with the public. That in fact IS what bus drivers and pilots have in common…dealing with BS from the public.

    It does warm my heart to read many of the replies here which offer compassion for the unruly passenger. This wasn't some incident where an entitled "Karen" decided to make a fuss and not care about the circumstances or other people. This case was different and it's nice to see many realize that here. I can't imagine how frustrated the other passengers were to have to return back to BOS after such a delay but in the end it's about ensuring this unruly passenger wasn't at further risk to himself, the crew, fellow passengers, or the aircraft.

      Often times law enforcement is needed to restrain and control the person in crisis so they don’t harm themselves or others.

Someone in crisis with dementia can rarely be reasoned with.

To say that guy went apeshit would be a understatement. He was threatening to kill the person for daring to speak. I might add the person was not being derogatory but stating a fact. We were delayed by over three hours and the nutter I’m afraid most of the other passengers were then calling him was handcuffed and carried from the plane to the cheers of all.

      @@curiousgeorge1940 As part of proper discussion. I'll define "Conspiracy Theory" as a covert plan between two or more people. With help from a Respected Dictionary source. The Oxford English Dictionary defines conspiracy theory as "the theory that an event or phenomenon occurs as a result of a conspiracy between interested parties; spec. a belief that some covert but influential agency (typically political in motivation and oppressive in intent) is responsible for an unexplained event."
      Wiki-Zio-Pedia lists the following "definition" of "conspiracy theory."
      (That I believe is a true and reliable Lesson #1 about mis/dis-information.)
      "To allow the use of the the term as a derogatory and accusatory term to attack anyone who opposes the "official" narrative."
      The official narrative that still promotes, to this very day, that "The CDC says it is a totally safe and effective 'vaccine' that prevents the spread of CV19 and significantly depresses the incidence of infection by CV19. And suppresses the serious effects of contracting CV19, including hospitalization and death."
      Facts that are currently admitted by the CDC/NIH to be LIES.
      The total opposite of the fact that the CV19 injections are not vaccines but are permanent gene therapy that permanently change your DNA forever. And make giving your blood to the UN-jabbed similar to giving AIDS tainted blood to others. I lived through that in medical training in the early to late 1980s. They are a poison that has killed millions, and will continue to kill millions more people for at least ~5+ years. While not preventing the spread of, or contraction of CV19.
      More Wiki-Zio-Propaganda-Pedia:
      "A conspiracy theory is not simply about a conspiracy, which refers to any covert plan involving two or more people. In contrast, the term "conspiracy theory" refers to hypothesized conspiracies that have specific characteristics. For example, conspiracist beliefs invariably oppose the mainstream consensus among those people who are 'qualified(?)' (who determines who those people are?) to evaluate their accuracy, such as co-opted/blackmailed Scientists or Historians (No s**t, Sherlock. As opposed to people that are self or formally educated and have critical thinking skills like me). Conspiracy theorists see themselves as having privileged access to socially persecuted knowledge (who is persecuting them?) or a stigmatized mode of thought (who stigmatized the Scientific mode of thought?) that separates them from the masses who believe the official account."
      Michael Bolton ("I love his whole catalogue", from the movie "Office Space")...oops... I mean Michael Barkun (never heard of him) describes a conspiracy theory as a "template imposed upon the world to give the appearance of order to events".
      What a f**king Treasonous Psychopathic Organized Criminal. A "tribe member? Or a "useful Idiot".
      That is pure propaganda and a fully tyrannical definition by Treasonous Psychopathic Organized Criminal Domestic Enemies of the Constitution. Primarily composed of a "tribe that wears small hats". And their un-thinking un-questionably order folllwing "useful idiots".
      In 1980, I swore an oath about defending the Constitution against Foreign and Domestic Enemies. No expiration date.
      Wiki-Zio-Propaganda-pedia again describes:
      "Real conspiracies, even very simple ones, are difficult to conceal and routinely experience unexpected problems. In contrast, conspiracy theories suggest that conspiracies are unrealistically successful and that groups of conspirators, such as bureaucracies, can act with near-perfect competence and secrecy. The causes of events or situations are simplified to exclude complex or interacting factors, as well as the role of chance and unintended consequences. Nearly all observations are explained as having been deliberately planned by the alleged conspirators.
      In conspiracy theories, the conspirators are usually claimed to be acting with extreme malice. As described by Robert "Bob-Bro" Brotherton: The malevolent intent assumed by most conspiracy theories goes far beyond everyday plots borne out of self-interest, corruption, cruelty, and criminality. The postulated conspirators are not merely people with selfish agendas or differing values. Rather, conspiracy theories postulate a black-and-white world in which good is struggling against evil. The general public is cast as the victim of organised persecution, and the motives of the alleged conspirators often verge on pure maniacal evil (tell me more). At the very least, the conspirators are said to have an almost inhuman disregard for the basic liberty and well-being of the general population. More grandiose conspiracy theories portray the conspirators as being Evil Incarnate: of having caused all the ills from which we suffer, committing abominable acts of unthinkable cruelty on a routine basis, and striving ultimately to subvert or destroy everything we hold dear."
      Where are Facts that dispute those assertions? I'll wait (forever). Because there are no such facts.
      Can I get a, You Go, Bro.
      Thanks "Bob-Bro".
