We really need to put this guy in a straight jacket before he gets us all killed.

It's already really easy to kill airline passengers, you're in a 28 ton metal tube flying 600mph in the sky filled with highly flammable fuel, what's the worst the could go wrong?

Then the government uses our tax dollars to keep the airlines afloat. If we're gonna pay for the airlines anyway, we might as well use them.

i think ron had a good argument back in the day about this (i didnt watch this video)

let the pilot(I think id rather a security guard, but he said pilot) carry a gun on board.

its not a perfect plan but i think it makes some sense. I mean theres obvious flaws in the plan, such as if the pilot goes crazy, or if the gun gets taken away, malfunctions etc. but whatever

I have to agree with Ron here. It's bullshit. Xray my bag? okay. Walk through a metal detector? Okay. Don't take a fuckin nude photo of me. Don't open up everything I own. Why can't I bring liquid through security? Fuck that. Invasion of privacy and taking away some rights. Have someone on a plane ready in case some shit goes down. And the people should fucking sack up and do something like they did on that one flight that crashed into the ground. One attack and now we're all crazy paranoid. Let's get back to living like humans and not be treated like we're all a giant threat.

If the pilot goes crazy, why wouldn't he just nose dive the plane into the ground instead of trying to gun down the passengers?

How would the gun get taken away from them? Are you expecting ninja terrorists anytime soon?

A well-maintained gun that stays cock toweled in a box is most likely not going to malfunction.

yeah. I found it yesterday. this was a better choice since it doesn't usually show up in urls commonly on this site unlike last weeks. I'm all for goofy pranks and shit as long as it doesn't interfere with functionality.

it depends if the pilot wants to commit suicide and if they think they can get away with something

You can get swamped, you cant shoot a large enough group with one or two guns if theyre going to rush you down. we all know some arent afraid to die in the process either. This is why I think its better to have a dedicated armed security team on each flight(as opposed to just the pilots) that are stationed in the front and back of the plane to avoid any shenanigans.

perhaps a well maintained gun doesnt malfunction much, but theres always the human element to consider, people dont always do their jobs right.

I'm not trolling. I don't want a security team on a plane watching my every move.

Find a case of this ever happening and we can talk. Pilots go through a lot of background checks and psychological evaluations. We trust them to fly the damn plane. If we can't trust them with a gun, we can't trust anyone on the plane with one.

The cockpit doors are sealed. Passengers can't just rush the pilots.

But yeah, if there is a whole fucking army of terrorists on the plane there isn't much defending against that. Even a small security team isn't going to be able to stop fifty people from rushing them and taking their guns. Is that a realistic scenario though? No.

By the way, there are air marshals on many flights, and they carry guns too. So it's not just the pilots sometimes.

The odds of a terrorist attack on a plane happening are extremely low. The odds of a gun malfunctioning are very low too. The odds of a gun malfunctioning on a plane that is being attacked by terrorists are astronomical.

He has a point, the same thing you said could happen with pilots could happen with a security team. I guess we need a security team to watch the security team too?

So basically we shouldn't trust anyone and just shut down the airlines completely.

We could require all passengers and crew to go through security guard training and background checks. Then everyone would be security guards with guns. We would have the most secure flights ever!

You would have to schedule a few months in advance for flights though.

i don't care if they take nude photos of me

we should all strip completely before getting on plane, then the airports could save some money
