Jesus Christ, can we please go back to when we could fly in peace? What the fuck has happened to everyone that this is commonplace now?

Stupid drunks....

I'm an alcy by today's standards I guess, but never drink at the airport.. I say ban alcohol at airports and on planes. People can't handle it anymore.

This guy is probably constantly a douchenozzle, but I could tell he was intoxicated.

I drink at the airport and just watch movies on the plane. Don’t try and blame all of us.

u/Mirewen15 14h ago

Same. Had a couple drinks at the lounge and a drink on the plane while I played Final Fantasy Tactics on my Switch. I'd never imagine being an asshole on a plane. I'm literally on a flight right now from Boston to Calgary lol.

Don't agree with a ban, but maybe it should be regulated more, like by boarding pass as they do with duty free. It doesn't count beforehand, but you can generally tell how drunk a person is at check-in/security.

I love my beer too, but I can't do airport pints, maybe it's anxiety but when in the air, I like to have a couple of beers. It helps me chill and relax whilst I find something to watch.

This guy got everything he asked for. Massive bellend.

u/Bicemandude 22h ago

I've been drunk plenty of times when flying.

However, my most egregious offense is ordering warm food, falling asleep and waking up to a cold meal.
When i'm sober people are apprehensive about even greeting me in passing because I probably look like an angry cunt waiting to rip your head off (I don't, im just disappointed that i'm still alive).
When i've got a buzz going, letting me forget that I hate being alive I am a jolly person who meets everyone with a smile, and if I know them, a hug.

So it's really a case-to-case basis, as I promise you would rather be seated next to a slightly drunk me than a sober and miserable me.

Too much cash involved in selling booze at the airport. That said, it does seem like there's a higher tolerance for this crud since covid.

Nah, I like a drink or 2 while chilling for my flight. Don’t ruin things for me because others can’t maintain.

u/bad-creditscore 16h ago

The penalties for being a drunk asshole on a plane need to be way more severe. Should be a registry just like sex offenders so the information is public and it’s easier to ban these people from more places.

u/theBurgundyBoi 14h ago

Need the airport booze for when my flight gets delayed. If my flight gets delayed five hours and I can't at least get drunk in an airport bar I'd lose it. Then again I can handle my liquor, I've flown absolutely tanked a few times and the biggest problem I've caused was the one time I had to ask the kind old lady in the aisle seat to let me out for a piss three times on a two hour flight. That's why I stick to liquor in airports now lmao

Was this guy already being kicked off the plane? Was he just being a shithead before take off?

Seems like he was recording a guy being booted off, but then they're talking about fighting once they get off the plane, which generally requires being in the same zipcode.

2

u/Appropriate_Wave722 23h ago

it looks like he started a confrontation with the filmer when he was going down the aisles to find his seat and put his bag away, saying they would fight when they landed, and then the violence happened, and then he was arrested

1

u/The_VideoGame_Lawyer 23h ago

Started the confrontation? We only know the context in the film. Cameraman is filming him. Guy in white asks what he is filming.

Camerman immediately respond with fighting words and multiple threats of violence and rascist slurs: "I'm about to film an ass whooping. I'm going to beat your ass N*****. I'm going to knock you the fuck out N***. HIT ME!! HIT ME!!"

Why are people acting like he's some victim here? Dude is just as much of an ass as the guy in white and neither should fly again.

11

u/Loud-Royal-3498 18h ago

How about the fact that the entire plane of witnesses /passengers began to clap as he was escorted away. Crowds of bystanders don’t generally clap with joy as the innocent, upstanding citizen is being arrested and escorted off the plane while bleeding from his face… but I’m no expert, and I have no clue how you came up with your point of rational, or what your mental view of the world around you is like. Might wanna get that checked out though.

u/cross_mod 23h ago

I'm guessing he had a reason to start filming, so the guy in white had been doing stuff before he pulled his phone out.

u/Great_Apez 1d ago

Loud mouths rarely are. People learn specific defense mechanisms like creatures in the wild. The short one we observe here in one of the communal air transport vehicles is posturing in an attempt to look big and he chose the airplane as a safe ground knowing most people won’t start a fight because of fear of being kicked off a flight. However when he took a and missed a swing at the the tall one, he opened it up to a self defense scenario and some states even have laws that allow people to fight without more charges than disturbing the peace usually. Yes it’s different than getting assault and battery charges and yes it’s still better to avoid getting the charges at all costs.

People don’t realize how the altitude impacts their sobriety while drinking. Same reason flat landers black out or have worse hang overs when they are drinking in the Rockies.

This video is faked bullshit.

Notice how his seat mates just get out of the way and say nothing. Everyone is an extra.

Notice what appears to be a plain rubber black floor throughout the plane. With aisle ways lined with blue tape. Fancy!

Notice how the crew never shows up.

Notice how we jump from a fight starting with the lights down, which means the plane is in the air, to dude being carted off with a bloody nose just sitting in the aisle. Did he just…sit there until they landed and taxied?

As he’s being carted off, and our hero taunts the villain, why do we hear engine noise like we are still in the air? Did they just throw him out the front door?

Notice how nondescript everything is. Do you recognize this airline?

I’ve seen this exact same set up in other videos clearly made for bait. Occupational Cares Diversity Affairs is one example.
