Passenger tried to blow up U.S. plane: AP source

If I was on that flight, I would be kicking the shit out of him. Nobody would complain or report me. When the police ask, say he struggled.

Unbelievable. You should expect this shit not to pass customs. I read it was fireworks too, and even that should not have been able to pass customs.

That said, they need a new editor. The spelling errors in that article are annoying.

And here I thought it was a story of some crazy Arab fanatic burning his lips on the hot jet engines.......

Christian Nigerians must be squirming right now. They hate muslims so much there. This is probably the straw that will break the camel's back.

I guess that happens when you go cheap on your suicide bombers

How the hell did he get the shit aboard the plane is what I want to know. This will make flying all the more difficult.

I don't think most Canadians have to worry. Most suspects are still from specific countries and with specific and unique names.

The US should send him back to Nigeria, he'll "die while resisting arrest" there. His local mosque will be bulldozed and its followers incinerated.

Not really something I endorse.

Neither do I, but it's either that or a kangaroo trial on US taxpayer money. Saves them resources.

don't treat his burns at a hospital....infection will set in soon if they're 3rd degree. Sepsis will take care of the rest.......slowly.

The flight went from Nigeria to Amsterdam then Detroit. Where the hell was secuity?
Oh, that's right. Their all scared about being slagged for "racial profiling".

Not even an issue of profiling here. Didn't it say he was on a watch list and banned from entering the US? So they missed the fact he should not have been allowed on the flight AND the explosives. Yikes!

They note in the video that he was on the watch list but not the no fly list. You'd think they would have checked him over a little closer.

He came from Nigeria. WTF do you expect?
