Mental illness? For TikToK or one of the SM platform clicks? Copy cat?

When's the last time someone on a plane declare they have a bomb and actually have one. Even DB Cooper doesn't have one.

I can only think of cases where terrorist didn't threaten anyone but just ignite it, like the underware guy.

These disruptive idiots need to be dealt with severely. A big fine and sis months in prison should be sufficient deterrence.

What a cluster, shutting down 2 of 3 runways @ busy SeaTac ..,
Isn't there a more 'convenient', less disruptive remote location there to blow up an aircraft ?
...just sayin'

I SOOO want an investigative journalist piece about this mythical No-Fly list. I know there's a federal one and the airlines have their own that they supposedly share. But I feel like people rarely actually end up on them. It feel like a few bad actors cause 90% of these kinds of problems.

Apart from the poor judgement (aka criminal behavior) on the part of the person making the threat, the response doesn't seem pragmatic. Re-screening everybody (who's already been traumatized by deplaning on the runway and severely delayed) seems excessive.
