I seriously have no desire to board an airplane. I’m normally reluctant anyway because I feel so helpless on an airplane.

I have no control whatsoever if that plane crashes and I’m putting my life in the hands of strangers. I know that the odds of a crash happening are very slim, but all it takes is that one time for it to happen.

Besides that though, people are idiots and I see videos almost every day at either airports or on airplanes where people are just acting foolish. They’re either yelling at someone, cursing at them, trying to fight them, or just being rude.

Such is the case once again in Miami when a massive brawl broke out and people were fighting a police officer. The officer was actually forced to pull out his side arm to stop the mob from attacking him. People seriously have zero respect for police, their lives, or the lives of others anymore.

And as usual, there are trashy people around who are just wanting to video the event to get their 15 minutes of fame on World Star instead of being good humans and trying to stop the violence from taking place. If the man would have gotten shot, they would have cried racism and that he didn’t have to shoot him, all the while, they just sat back and watched it all unfold.

Apparently, here’s what started the whole situation:

There are two sides to this and both appear to be in the wrong. The man should not have grabbed the police officer. In turn, the police officer should not have swung on him for such a small thing. Then when he put him in a chokehold and held him there, I can honestly understand why others acted to stop the officer.

However, it’s being reported that the man was upset over a delayed flight so he took some keys from an employee of the airport and refused to give them back.

Miami International Airport Director and CEO Ralph Cutié released the following statement:

“Like airports across the country, MIA is seeing record-high passenger numbers this winter travel season. Unfortunately, that passenger growth has come with a record-high increase nationwide in bad behavior as well, such as the incident this evening at MIA. Disruptive passengers face police arrest, civil penalties up to $37,000, being banned from flying, and potential federal prosecution. We have worked so hard to rebound from the pandemic and make traveling safe again, so we can visit our loved ones. Please travel responsibly by getting to the airport extra early, being patient, complying with the federal mask law and airport staff, limiting your alcohol consumption, and notifying police at the first sign of bad behavior by calling 911.”
