What was the quote from the old "Hanging Judge Parker" in Fort Smith? "They'll have a fair trial at noon, and the hangin's at one!"? They tend to be quite arrogant at times, especially the Planetlillians.
Judge Parker's quote is correct.
I spent a month in Amarillo, TX one weekend.
i do belive the airline is faulty too.
i got some 4 star hotels in europe and ALWAYS dispatch groups all over the hotel different floors and corridors to avoid them doing noise and disturbances.i never understood why airlines do the opposite.
probably the root cause is because airport staff don't fly in the plane with them after..
beside adult attending kids , group of more than 4 should be splited all over the plane.
this will solve immediatly all the issues.
cathay pacific use to do that at my request on the late 80'' with sea crew going back home to philippines or amsterdam... it is completly impossible to control a group of 15 drunk dutch tanker sea crew..especially that they were ff alchool for last 3 month.the only way is to split the group.
thank you for attention.

the news reports and photos did not say specifically what these people did to disrupt the flight and the crew, other than being very loud..i can imagine however..they also only showed one person being led away in handcuffs...when will people learn that you don't get into a fight,or name call, or other such on an airplane because the flight attendants and cockpit crew are in charge,and just like in an unruly classroom, they can say enough, and even handcuff you..in this case I believe the flight was diverted to Amarillo..(actually a nice little airport even if it wasn't the destination!)good for southwest!
I don't believe these "unruly Swedes" were just a bunch of clowns. There is a very real threat to aviation brought forth by the misguided sons of the Middle East. They constantly test the security systems and reactions of crew members to refine their bent to kill infidels that have soiled Saudi lands.
Former Los Angeles Police Chief and politician Ed Davis put forth a plan to "Hang 'em at the Airport" to deter hijackers, but that line of thinking could be extended to any felony committed on a plane. The gallows could be erected between Duty Free and the Hummus Kiosk. It would sure thin the herd of idiots that want to cause a ruckus in flight.

These men (boys?) were not "Arabs" or "middle-eastern" in the traditional sense. They were Chaldeans ("Kal-dee-anns"), which are (basically) Christians from Iraq. They were heavily persecuted by the large Muslim population there, and many have fled Iraq and (legally) entered the U.S. There is a very large population of them in the San Diego east county city of El Cajon. They are, generally speaking, typically very good people. I know and have worked with many.
Unfortunately, these young men have really F-'ed up! If actually convicted, they face fairly heavy prison sentences, from what has been reported locally.
I'm in no way defending them or their actions. Just saying...it's not right to stereotype people because of their appearance or surname. It's easy to do...but it isn't right.
