With airline security being what it is, flying is a huge hassle anymore. It seems the more hoops we have to jump through, there is just one more idiot out there to make even more hoops.
It seems a federal air marshal had to subdue this moron because he apparently tried to light his shoes on fire while in the lavatory. According to this article from MSNBC, the man is a Qatari diplomat and claimed to be trying to set his shoes on fire.
We may need to begin checking our shoes before boarding a plane if this keeps up, or take off the undies and go commando. Heck, let’s just strip off and fly naked. Not only will it be difficult to hide a weapon, it will certainly save on baggage fees as well.
