Wow!!! What's next? Are you gonna defend your "right" to carry guns in a plane? Are you crazy? I hope I never see a crazy fucker trying to board in an airplane which I'm piloting (or even traveling) just so he can feel safer. How am I gonna feel safe with a fucker carrying a gun near me (in a theater, in an airplane, anywhere)? How are you gonna differ a sane person from a crazy one (maybe the crazy one will be carrying a gun)? There isn't a clear line that separates madness from sanity, until shit like this happens, and if you see your self in a situation like this, and you have a gun, you'll certainly make things worst, it will be two fuckers killing innocent people.
Nothing good in this world was made with a gun in hand, no matter what the arms industry lobby says.
This type of personality, capable of committing such atrocities, is the product of the Usonian culture, which make people thinks they are owners of the world, center of the universe, masters of reason... USA is so fucked up, that even your own wants to give it an end.
EDIT: About ban of cellphone use on commercial airplanes: there is a little chance that the cellphone signal may interfere with the navigation systems from the airplane. It`s enough for me, It`s enough for all regulatory agencies and all airline companies that I know, so you wont use the fucking phone, live with it.
