The passengers "subdued" him. I hope the SOB is black and blue.

Ahh, but now, we must protect his rights, afford him free legal counsel, feed, cloth, and offer health care for the next 5 years before his trial begins, which will surely result in appeal after appeal if convicted, or instant freedom should he be found innocent because his rights were violated in some way. At the very least, he will worry not for the next several years while the rest of us struggle and scrimp and save to get by from paycheck to paycheck while paying the taxes that will support this arseclown. I know, I know, its not perfect but its the best legal system in the world. Well, IMHO, it can be perfected. Put this jerk on a plane, by himself, with a bomb, and let him finish his job. Tied to the wing at 35,000 feet before it detonates would be justice as far as Im concerned.

I guess after they show you what to do in the event of a crash they should show you how to subdue a hijacker to death.It would save a lot of tax dollars and might serve as a deterrant.

How did this guy get on the plane with fire crackers and a possible bomb in the first place?

The Homeland Security Department said passengers may see additional screening measures on domestic and international flights because of the incident.

"We encourage those with future travel plans to stay in touch with their airline and to visit www.tsa.gov for updates," the department said.

I hope not, but this could be the end of e-cigs and juice in your carry on luggage on a plane. Expect to arrive at airports even earlier now as well I'm sure.

This answers my question. Updated news link

He hid them in his underpants near his testicles so they wouldn't be detected. I wonder if this will be a push for the TSA to use the virtual strip search scanners?
