crzmeat: Sorry to say this but your name is starting to fit you. My point was...since excessive alcohol consumption causes people to do things that they would not normally do when they are sober they may as well ban selling it on flights and at airports. Why do people need to drink the hours they are traveling? Smokers can''t smoke.

The flaw in that argument is that it would only cause people to go to the nearest place they could buy alcohol. And, probably cause them to drink more than they normally would.

What would be more effective is having only one outlet on airport property that sells alcohol and impose a two drink limit on patrons.

(for huge airports, maybe one bar per terminal)

...........

That could possibly work.

But as long as there was some way to ensure people only have a "two drink maximum".

There needs to be (at the very least) some limits/restrictions on alcohol sales at an airport, especially onboard an airliner. How that could be accomplished is up for debate.

But until we have a national dialog about this issue, then there will never be any solution and tragedies like this one will continue to occur.

To be fair ... this reporter should have disclosed HOW MUCH MONEY this so called "airport death doctor" was paid to invoke his personal opinions .. this gal was so drunk she tried to free herself and unfortunately did not realize she was putting herself in harms way ..

What has happend to personal responsibility???

As for this drunk gal ( I do feel for her family) flying to a rehab center absolutely COCKED .. HELLO !!She should have had a family member with her to make sure she arrived SOBER !!

Any person who believes that someone who is DRUNK, ENRAGED & COMBATIVE ... should be babysat while she cools down is not living in reality ... this gal obviously had some serious ISSUES and now all the ambulance chasers and paid mouthpieces are spewing thier *** in the media ... in order to taint a possible jury ...

SHAMEFUL !!!

Since you can''t smoke on flights or in airports...might as well ban alcohol also. The addicted smokers are dealing with it...why cn''t the drinkers also. BTW...I''m a smoker and a drinker and I fly...but I don''t drink or smoke when I fly.

"Airport Death Doctor: Police Blew It

of course it could had been prevented..the FAMILY should had accompanied this woman to her ''rehab center'' or she should had not drank any booze before she went to her "rehab".. either way not unless we are ready to pay up to arse to convert our jails into ''betty ford clinics/hilton hotel/ day spa''.

SHE STRANGLED HERSELF?
If the cops wouldn''t have overeacted and arrested that lady at Sky Harbor, she''d still be alive. What did she do that was illegal? She complained too emphatically to the boarding agent who wouldn''t allow her on the plane, notwithstanding the fact that the plane was still at the gate. That would have made me angry too, and rightfully so. I''ve encountered the type of holier than thou airline employees this lady encountered at the boarding gate. Now, under the oxymoronically-named Patriot Act, airline employees can have you arrested for the most minor of slants to their authority over you. Doubt me? Just say something cross-ways to a an airline employee the next time you go to the airport, or while you''re in-flight. Watch what they do, and see how they react for yourself. You''ll be a believer then. This is how far we''ve devolved as a nation. You''re not even allowed to express your dissatisfaction to an airline employee without The Department of Homeland Security, treating you like a terrorist. "Those were Phoenix Cops," you say? Well, under provisions of the Pariot Act, ALL airport Law enforcement personnel, including Phoenix cops, patroling in International Airports, do so under the oversight and supervision of The Department of Homeland Security--Bush''s version of the Gestapo. They''re nothing but jack-booted thugs with double-digit IQs and six-digit digit incomes. It''s one of the first departments Ron Paul says he will get rid of WHEN he''s elected. I can''t wait.

TO APATHETIC AMERICANS
Voter disenfranchisement and apathy infects the heart of our Republic. Get off your couch, put your remote control down, and become active in your nation''s political process. The pathetically few people that do vote in this country, a.k.a., "the ruling class", who currently get to decide under what kind of conditions (and Laws) you and your family will live, are certainly involved. I can assure you of that. In fact, the ruling class would be much happier if you would just continue to stay home and watch TV in your pleasantly distracted and brainwashed, stupor. That way they can continue to elect their political ****** to office, and continue to maintain their grip on 100% of the political power they currently own in this country. If you voted (God Forbid), it would cancel-out their vote, and they would lose control. They can''t have that. Now can they? If you don''t vote, my friends, you''re nothing but an unwashed "Pleb" to those that do, and the ruling class should rightfully consider themselves superior to you in every way. They do, after all, have all the power, while you have none. If you''re too apathetic and powerless to do anything for yourself more time-consuming than driving down to Mickey D''s to buy a milk shake in order to sieze control of your life, and your country''s destiny, then perhaps you deserve to be ruled over like the "Pleb" that you then are. The time to act is now. The time for political revolution has come. The time for Ron Paul is NOW!

PUT UP OR SHUT UP
I challenge you to present your candidate''s competing ideas, or does your candidate even have any ideas? You probably don''t even know where your candidate stands on the most important issues facing our country. That''s understandable, because your sold-out candidate probably doesn''t want you to know. Sadly, modern elections have become little more than beauty contests rather than contests of ideas, which is what they should be. To those of you who don''t like my posts, and refer to them as "spam": If you are turned-off by free speech and the communication of political ideas during a presidential election season, I''m totally glad you are. You''re probably the same sort of fascist pigs who trys to define waterboarding as an "enhanced interrogation technique," rather than the inhumane sort of torture that it most surely is. You can define my political free speech as "spam," and you can define torture as an "inhanced interrogation technique," but that does not make it so. Finally, rather than flip-flopping as the winds of the moment blow, or not fully disclosing where he stands on the issues, as your favorite candidate probably does, Ron Paul makes his positions very clear, and he never deviates from those positions, ever. His 800 published articles, five books and 20 year congressional voting record is proof of that fact. This is one of the many reasons so many people like myself support him. He, unlike your candidate, is a man of real substance and real integrity.

YOU''RE A FROG IN A POT
My fellow Americans need to open their eyes to the fact that our republic, along with The Constitution upon which it was founded, is being flushed-down the toilet by our nations'' bought and paid for politicians and media. While the Oligarchs warn and incite fear in the sheeple about the prospect of terrorism, they at the same time leave our borders wide open, and then conduct illegal wars overseas that do nothing but incite the terrorism which their Orwellian Laws like the Patriot Act and the John Warner Defense Authorization Act pretend to protect us from. Wake up America! It''s not about protecting you from terrorism, or Global Warming, or any of that other fear-mongering garbage the sold-out, mainstream media feeds you 24/7. It''s about feeding the bankers and the military industrial complex, and facilitating the global elite''s ability to ratchet-down control over the American people, placing us into a total control grid where they can surveille, track and control everywhere we go and everything we do. It''s the groundwork for tyranny. It''s the New World Order plan of Bush, Clinton, Edwards, McCain, Giuliani, et.al., being executed quite beautifully. You''re a frog in a pot: In order to cook a frog, you don''t throw him into a pot of boiling water. If you do, he''ll resist and jump-out. What you do instead is, you turn the heat-up REAL SLOW, and by the time the water is boiling he won''t be able to jump out anymore, because it''s too late--he''s already doomed.

AH KRAP!

Here we go with more Ron Paul spamming bull ******!

Let me guess...

...Ron Paul is also an avid airline passenger... and he would take steps to ensure everyone gets "first class" treatment on the airlines?

Or...

...Ron Paul believes in individual (passenger) rights, therefore he would fight to eliminate the Federal Aviation Administration and turn that authority over to the states because "the federal government is not fit... blah... blah... blah".

CLINTON MAKES PRESIDENT DICTATOR
With the full support of Senators Clinton, Obama and McCain, President Bush recently signed into Law the John Warner Defense Authorization Act, which, according to Senator Leahy (VT), will actually "encourage the President to declare Martial Law." It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a Laws which limits the President''s ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act, helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic Law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush has now undone all of those prohibitions. The John Warner Defense Authorization Act, which was signed by the President in an unpublicized ceremony, allows the President to declare a "public emergency," suspend Congress; The Constitution; and to take control of state-based National Guard units without the consent of your Governor or local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder." President Bush seized this unprecedented power on the very same day that he signed the equally odious Military Commissions Act. The two Laws compliment one another. One allows for torture and detention abroad of those who dissent and are stripped of their citizenship, while the other seeks to enforce acquiescence at home by allowing the President to order the military onto our streets in a domestic Law enforcement role, which is already being done. Vote for Liberty. Vote for Ron Paul.
