#2 "Listen, the point is, I am a sociologist, and I live in an intellectual world"

fire her ass and ship her back to Venezuela. They deserve her

#3 This is what academia calls 'intellectual'. Institution of higher learning it is not.

Wizard of Oz: Why, anybody can have a brain. That's a very mediocre commodity. Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the Earth or slinks through slimy seas has a brain. Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers. And when they come out, they think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven't got: a diploma.

#4 Her paper was entitled: "Defending the Self In a Total Institution: Staff Prompting and Patient Burlesque,"

Anybody have a clue what this ditsy little daisy is talking about or is she completely off in the moonbat category?

#7 Does a fellow flyer have any recourse when this happens? Granted, if you are on a Nicaragua to Miami flight you may have to expect this, but flying stinks enough w/out having to put up w/a nutjob acting out w/apparent impunity. A D&D charge and release don't cut it. Will she at least be put on a no-fly list?

#8 You could encourage her to take it up with the captain. When she heads for "rushes" the cockpit, tackle her and gag and bind her--by all means gag her.

#9 I read this yesterday. She's gone from Bowdoin to University of Vermont and now Penn State-Abington.
Magic Eight Ball sez, "Career Track Downward".
Wonder if she'll still have a job there? If not, Bunker Hill Community College, here I come!

#10 JQC, I like the way you think.
TU, she is also a grad of BC, which explains her drinking and shitting-in-the-interrogation-room problems.

#11 She was lucky:
On August 11, 2000, Jonathan Burton stormed the cockpit door of the Boeing 737 on Southwest Airlines flight 1763 from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City, in an apparent case of air rage. The 19-year-old was subdued by six to eight other passengers with such force that he died of asphyxiation.

#12 Regular Joe, I think she should have gotten an AD&D charge myself.

#13 Sounds like Press TV Iran has another one for their rolodex...
