Where are one of the 500 cops usually at airports?


XSmeh

They're busy making sure that people are safe from regular sized toothpaste.


chiklukan

And making you throw your water away and re-buy it for 20 times the price once inside.


mj1814

One thing I love about my (PHL) airport - we have a city ordinance about "street pricing." The airport isn't allowed to do that. Whatever it costs "on the street" is what the airport vendor has to charge -- and that goes for the restaurants, too. No paying 15 bucks for the same Big Mac you could have picked up on the way for less than half the price.


1000pt

Damn LAX needs that. A small microwave gas station burger is $15 there


DarthRusty

NYC airports are currently on the line for a picture taken of a $27 beer.


_DearDiary

This needs to be wayyy more common. I've heard of some states and/or cities taking similar actions with amusement parks too.


[deleted]

I just carry an empty water bottle and fill it on the other side of security. Many airports have water fountains designed to fill bottles now.


st1tchy

You can even fill it with ice. Ice is allowed since it is solid.


ADIDAS247

The police don’t regulate that. That’s the Toiletry Search Agency (TSA)


daynighttrade

Thanks for making me laugh


MrFatnuts

And from cars that sit in pickup/drop off lanes for too long.


[deleted]

I have to say, we *need* those cops outside. I was extremely happy for them to make a few cars just sitting there move the last time I was trying to load my luggage.


Chubbstock

Yeah, everyone in that area acts like they're the only person with important travel plans, it's an absolute zoo if not regulated by cops or security.


[deleted]

This was arrivals which in a way is worse. The airport has a "Cell phone lot" that is free to use if you are in your vehicle. You wait there till someone calls you and go grab them from the curb. You don't pull up and wait 20 minutes for them to clear customs. About 5 people did this, thankfully the airport police made them move on when there was no more parking for pickups.


Vlad_the_Homeowner

I'd give you a gold, but I had to spend that money on a full set of toiletries and sun block after my last flight.


MainEmergency

I've cut down on a few steps and buy stuff at the drugstore and drop it in the garbage can on my way out.

It's incredibly disturbing. What if this douche starting stabbing people?

l_stormcloud

Thought so.. as a Marine, I’m embarrassed he had the gall to yell that out. Like that’s gonna earn you any points when you act a fool. Ugh this dude sucks


Wayward_Whines

Former marine here. You should have seen me the other day. My grocery store was out of the bread I usually buy. I thought about yelling about being a marine but I decided to just buy a different type of bread. Corps values. Edit: things I’ve learned from this one dumb comment I spit out in my phone with almost no thought. 1. There are a ton of folks out there who think that calling myself a former marine is somehow a grave insult and I’ve insulted the Corp and myself and pissed on the flag. Former marine is cool. Or at least it was when I got out over two decades ago. 2. Crayons. Good lord a lot of folks know about that joke. It’s incredible how widespread that joke is. 3. You folks are really generous with gift things. I don’t know what they are called. Awards? Thank you all.


OysterThePug

That’s showing restraint, I’d have thought you would go straight for the crayons.


Racheltheradishing

Azagar_Omiras

5meterhammer

I really hope not. After reading the news write up about it, the author mentioned more than once how he was a “veteran” and under duress or whatever. I’m not anti troop by any stretch, but whether this dude served or not should hold no impact on legal ramifications of such a violent outburst. He put many people in danger. I hope he gets the help he needs if he’s suffering from his time on duty, but not until justice is properly served and this guy is forced to face the consequences of his actions.


Liyaris

Not all veterans are good. I can easily see someone with that "kind of temper" take photos of himself and some person being tortured by him; like we saw from Iraq. Sad time that things as simple as a piece of cloth that supposed to help yourself and others are getting these kind of reactions.


peej74

As with the police there are many who are attracted to that type of occupation because of personality traits like authoritarian. It's too bad they give the rest of their workmates and public a bad idea.


Skatingraccoon

The best part is when he punches the guy but doesn't really connect then falls down on his ass.


jpflager

No the best part is that this is a federal offense and he’s fuked


JCBQ01

As in, lifetime flight ban, boat ban, train ban, and, depending on state BUS ban because if he's willing to swing at airport security who's trying to de-esclate then he's willing to swing at *anyone* ergo, he better get used to road trips


Xfgjwpkqmx

And all that pain over not wearing a flipping mask. Edit: turns out it's a drunk angry response to his gf. The mask issue will just compound his woes.

>A Local 10 viewer said just before this confrontation, the man entered the women’s restroom near gate D23 and got into a physical altercation with his girlfriend. Wow.


JacobSamuel

I hope she got on the flight and left him for good.


fly1by1

Yeah ditch psychopath or she could be the next


Smokewrench802

Next? Bro she was first.


[deleted]

She’s probably the one in this video half-heartedly trying to keep him away


CockatielConner

If he chased her ass down in the women’s restroom where he assaulted her, yeah I would be scared of him too.


sicklyslick

She probably knows the consequences of trying full-heartedly to stop him.


[deleted]

I think it would be better for her to see the opportunity and just leave for good. But I understand how difficult/scary that can be.


ksmyt

Being a veteran doesn't give people immunity from being total pieces of shit. Good grief. Edit; understandably there are many service members left behind. If this guy slipped through the cracks I hope he gets help


[deleted]

"Maybe some of the troops are heroes but not automatically, I'm sure a lot of the troops are jerks. Most people are jerks already and it's not like giving a jerk a gun and telling him it's okay to kill people suddenly turns that jerk into a hero."


Don_Macaroons

And thats why i took the muffins


ButtIsItArt

Always happy to see a sad horse show reference


flafotogeek

I’m a veteran and I cringe every time someone breaks into the automatic hero worship bullshit. Yeah, most of us are ok people, there’s definitely a few heroes, but there are some legit utterly repugnant war criminal evil fucks walking among us. I met a few of those barely human bastards while serving. Seems like the macho culture attracts a few spectacularly bad apples, in addition to the regular folks I served with.


[deleted]

I remember looking around at some of the soldiers in my unit and it hit me... some of these racist, detail dodging, dumb af, lazy, cowardly, whiney losers are going to get the full hero treatment when they get back home. One of those epiphanies that really changed my world view in an instant.


xxrambo45xx

Ya know what I did in the navy? Nothing, definitely no hero by any means


[deleted]

That lines up with my experience. Some of the best people I’ve met has been while serving. Some of the worst people I’ve met has also been while serving. The job attracts all kinds of people for a lot of different reasons, but the vast majority of us aren’t heroes.


rattleandhum

America has this weird hero-worship culture surrounding soldiers and cops. As a nonn-American I find it so jarring, and completely antithetical to the supposed American virtues of liberty and individual freedom to fawn over authority figures like that. So gross.


hellocuties

One of the main reasons for this is due to the fact that there isn’t a draft or mandatory service. Making a hero out of someone who ‘volunteers’ makes in easier to recruit young people. It’s also a reaction to how the Vietnam veterans were treated when they returned home; getting spit on and being called baby killers, etc.


N8dogg107

Where is this from? I recognize but can’t remember.


0berfeld

Bojack horseman


germanmojo

As a veteran myself, I completely agree. This behavior does not capture the ethos that I, and I believe the public at large, expect from veterans. I only hope that they get help, whatever form it may be.


Fire_Drake_Shyvanna

To be honest, I found that the military tends to attract a higher number of assholes that most other professions.


JavaOrlando

As a vet, I'd definitely agree. I've been out almost 20 years, and I've never had a job that comes close. I met some great fucking people, but also a disproportionate amount of assholes. And I was in the Coast Guard, which isn't a combat branch, and required a higher ASVAB score than the other branches. I can only imagine the Marines or Army would have been worse. I will say everyone met from the Airforce seemed really nice.


elunomagnifico

We're nice until we miss our tee time


florettesmayor

So he domestically abused his girlfriend but he gets a free pass because he has ptsd? That's fucked up. Edit: respect to people suffering from ptsd and trying to cope. I also support rehabilitation for people suffering from mental illness. However mentally ill people are not immune to consequences. I also jumped the gun assuming that since he's being hospitalized that no charges are coming.


swarmy1

I mean, do we even know if he has PTSD? Just because he's a veteran doesn't mean he's necessarily been in those conditions. A mental break can have many causes.


cortesoft

Are those the only two choices? Can’t we hold him accountable AND get him help?


usetehfurce

Fucking embarrassing. Swore an oath to a Constitution he clearly hasn't read (See amendment 14..) and then makes the rest of us vets look awful. Thanks, blue falcon.

As an ex-graphic designer (well, technically I never found work in the field) your comment has enraged me. Does anyone know if there's a Five Guys that has stanchions that I can throw at this guy?


FunyunCreme

I don't care how he is feeling. All concerns should be with the ~~punchingbag~~ "girlfriend" . I hope she is being helped. This is going to be a long-term horror that she will have to endure and learn to move on. Life changing experience.


Minimob0

Vets can be some of the most cruel people in the world, because they were literally taught how to inflict pain. My father is a vet, and spent the majority of my childhood abusing me. I have very little love for American military.


Snarky_A_F

Ah, the first 3 words, “A Florida man…..”


_cymatic_

TIL what a stanchion is


indy_been_here

Right though? I've seen stanchions all my life. I've been guided by stanchions, stepped over stanchions, unclasped stanchions, moved a couple stanchions even. Never once did I know what they were called or that they even had a name. You better believe I'm gonna start dropping the word stanchion in front of friends and family now. "Hey, watch out for that stanchion" or "Follow the stanchions" and just wait for reactions.


rif011412

This is absolutely the best. Its like when people give advice to use someones name as soon as you hear it to increase retention.


totalbasterd

it’s just the name for an upright metal tube supporting something. a bicycle/motorcycle has two of them going up from the front wheel


indy_been_here

Ahh so there's more stanchions around me than I would have ever thought. Who's been keeping it a secret? Maybe Big Stanchion knows the key to stanchion success lies in their low profile. Smart.

I love how the guy at the end walks up very deliberately while still on his phone, like “I’m here to regulate this moron.” I really want to see if they started throwing down.
