#1 Maybe no literal threat, but a procedural one.

Stupid effing judges. Who need them any more? Too few of them display any common sense whatsoever. Passing decrees from the bench as if they are playing with chess pieces and not lives. Thinking that every law is perfect and was written with every situation in mind.

Any more, if a judge makes a decision that makes sense, I'm shocked. More than half of the time they head exactly the wrong way unless the guy shows up in court with the bloody knife in his teeth, and then the lawyer just refers it up until he finds a judge who will agree with him. Which never takes long.

#2 You should read Annie Jacobson's articles on this. The most charitable interpretation of the iman's actions was they were trying to provoke an incident. A less charitable interpretation was it was a dry run for a hijacking.

womenswallstreet.com which published the articles seems to be down. so no link

#3 I would hope the TSA has these idiots on their no-fly list, for life.
