Joking about bombs on planes...

[jerseydevil]

There was this episode recently in NY where this frenchman while his plane was getting ready to take off joked about having a bomb on the plane and that they were going to blow up. He was immediately arrested. He ended up spending 15 days in jail. He got off with a $600 fine.

He went back to France - it was just on French news and he, as well as their news, blamed it all on the US. He said made statements like "He just left a young soulless country and is very glad to be back in old europe where their is a soul and culture."

I consider this guy to be a complete idiot. What person with an ounce of brains would say that he had a bomb on a plane - even if it was a joke? He had a diatribe of terrible things to say about the US and France is treating him like a hero. He will be on all their talk shows this evening and is scheduled to talk about the terrible US.

Most Americans don't even see this - because they don't get French News.

Whose fault do you think it is? Do you think it is the US's fault for arresting him or his fault for joking that there was a bomb on the plane and it was going to blow up?

For those that can understand french - here is the newscast...French 2 - Le Journal 20 Heures - Janvier 30

You can watch it up to the intro - you will see F. Moulet - which is the guy's name.
