American Airlines: No more booze
sales onboard until mask mandate
ends (except in business and first class)

Original Article

Listen up, proles: your failure to unquestioningly obey the useless mask mandate is going to cost you. The surge in passenger misbehavior on airlines, partially attributable to mask mandate resistance, is ending steerage class passengers their access to intoxicants while airborne. American Airlines has announced that it: …will delay selling alcoholic beverages this summer to main cabin passengers due to the uptick in bad passenger behavior in recent months that includes refusing to wear masks (snip) Ruling class members can relax, though. Those who can come up with the money for business and first class seats apparently are exempt from the booze ban

My husband just spent way too many hours in the Dubai airport and they have goons out patrolling and giving out $1000 fines for people caught not wearing a mask....while waiting to get on a 14 hour flight! I don't understand why airlines and airports need to enforce anything regarding masks. People who are sick should be at home, and probably prohibited from flying. People who are well, can wear a mask for the rest of their lives, if they are still of the opinion that the virus particles are in any way restricted by their mask. They should feel perfectly safe, regardless of whether I wear a mask.

But at least in Dubai, you can get a drink. Anyway, Lifson has a point in the gov't, approved mergers. Continuous growth models have led to the flying cattle cars we see today. Even flying in coach used to be special; now it truly is steerage in every sense of the word. I've had more room on a C-141 configured for passengers than I have on a civilian airliner in the last 15 years.

I think this is a positive. Why they ever started it is beyond me. I might understand a glass of wine with a dinner on a long flight but if you can't get through a few hours without a drink perhaps you should be attending an AA meeting instead of flying anyway.

I don't drink alcohol while flying, so I really don't care. However, the chaos seems to be on Southwest flights for the most part anyway, and I don't think booze has anything to do with it. Every story I've seen never mentions the passenger was loaded.

75% of airlines planes are parked, and the airlines are being paid not to fly. Isn't it a little insulting for taxpayers to be ordered around, denied a drink, after paying for the ticket, the airplanes, and the salaries of the personnel? I wonder if the airlines would like to stand up and say thank you American taxpayers for all you do.

For those of you who aren’t impacted, don’t drink, or think this is ‘positive’, think for a minute about what this really means. This isn’t about whether a passenger wants a drink or not. It’s about Socialism and two sets of rules. Remember that when they come after something you do care about.

Hypocrites. As someone who flies a fair amount, I can tell you that people get just as snockered and out of control in Business and First Class as in coach. I rarely if ever drink on board an aircraft, regardless of seating, but this is sure to lose AA a boatload of customers. I'd be willing to bet the AA CEO made his decision to placate the Flight Attendants Union.

But I WON'T be flying as long as these pukes insist on masks, even if they give better service in first. And a relative was a pilot for American for many years, came away truly hating the airline. I won't fly on American, ever.

I was utterly disgusted yesterday watching President Biden speak in Tulsa on the solemn occasion of the 100th anniversary of race riots there that cost lives and destroyed a community of African Americans. Biden dishonored the memory of the victims by politicizing the event, primarily directing his bile against Republicans, whom he lied about and demonized as racists. I turned off the coverage, and missed Biden very foolishly turning his lies into an attempt to bully fellow Democrats whose support he badly needs.

The GOP must die. The Grand Old Party is over and unsalvageable. The name finds its origin in the post-Civil War era as the party that saved the Union, but whatever positive connotations may have come with the GOP moniker are dead and gone now. Today, GOP conjures images of gray hairs at the country club and board meetings at Halliburton, and it seems the only thing it is nterested in saving is the status quo. There was a time when these perceptions could be dismissed as partisan pejoratives, but at some point, Republican Party leadership chose to embrace and embody the characterization.

Stockholm Syndrome is a psychological phenomenon where “hostages or abuse victims bond with their captors and abusers.” This bonding can occur over days, weeks, or months of captivity and abuse. Rather than being terrorized by their captors, hostages sympathize with them, developing positive feelings, sharing common goals and causes, and essentially falling in love with their captors. (snip) A modern-day version of the Stockholm Syndrome is playing out after over a year of COVID captivity. Americans have been held hostage by medical czars like Dr Anthony Fauci, totalitarian governors named Cuomo, Newsom, Whitmer, Murphy, and Wolf, and big media, including cable news giants CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News.

President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may consider a plan to bring deported illegal aliens back to the United States, presumably paid for by American taxpayers. The open borders lobby shared a plan with the Biden administration to bring illegal aliens deported by former President Donald Trump’s administration back to the U.S., according to the Associated Press (AP). More than 935,000 illegal aliens were deported by the Trump administration. The plan, open borders activists with the corporate-backed National Immigrant Justice Center suggest, could be done through executive order by Biden and create an office inside DHS that allows deported illegal aliens to submit requests to return to the U.S.

President Joe Biden on Tuesday announced plans to build black wealth and narrow the racial income gap ahead of a trip to Oklahoma to mark the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre. Biden's plan focuses on two key creators of wealth: homeownership and small business ownership. Under his proposal, the Department of Housing and Urban Development will propose new regulations 'to root out discrimination in the appraisal and homebuying process,' according to a White House fact sheet, in a bid to boost black home ownership. The administration also is seeking to address disparities that result in black-owned homes being appraised at tens of thousands of dollars less

The Republican Party successfully captured the record for ‘Worst Political Strategy in World History.’ There is no way they could have performed any worse. What were they thinking?It’s pretty clear after decades of failures and the rise of the Marxist left in the US that Republicans are not the brightest politicians and strategists.They somehow stumble into wins. Their policies make sense and most Americans agree with these policies. But Republicans have a knack for losing even when wins are handed to them.
