This was the top story on my local news last night. I couldn’t help but crack up at the sheer idiocy of our country and the morons inhabiting it at this point in history. You have a moron on an airplane who sneezes and then makes a bad joke that he has ebola, stating “I have Ebola, you are all screwed.” We all know idiots like this guy who make inappropriate jokes at the wrong time and the wrong place. You shake your head and mentally note what a douchebag they are. The moron tells everyone he was joking. In a rational world where common sense takes precedence, everyone would go about their business, exit the plane and enjoy their vacation. No, we don’t live in a rational world. The authorities overreact and send goofballs in goofy looking blue hazmat suits onto the plane. The passengers are amused and rolling their eyes, as they know it is nothing but a farce.
They should have had Tommy from Goodfellas handle the situation. He’s a funny guy too.
SHOCKING moment men in Ebola protection suits board plane
This shocking moment occurred on US Airways Flight 850 when a man believed to have been in Africa and had Ebola was removed from the plane. Men in protection suits boarded the flight in what was later confirmed to be a Hazmat team rushed to meet US plane in Dominican Republic after passenger sneezed and yelled ‘I have Ebola!’
A US Airways flight from Philadelphia landed in the Dominican Republic and was immediately greeted by health officials after a passenger decided to make a stupid joke.
Four Hazmat officers rushed onto US Airways plane from Philadelphia.
He was detained and taken for testing, exclaiming: ‘I ain’t been to Africa’.
255 passengers forced to stay on board for two hours until he was cleared.
Punta Cana Airport bosses said he is ‘unbalanced’ and ‘did it for attention’.
Admin christened me Tommy…..once I became monkey material and started ‘earning’ for admin (my tribute is $10/month), I was a made monkey. Love that movie, the end always depresses me when it should be the part a guy likes best – watching some douchebag slip on his own crap. Best scene…..
A little longer clip. Stop it at 3:36…. What do you see?
Sorry moving a little slow. here’s the link.

Can you tell us what you saw? I didn’t see anything unusual.
Ms Freud’s son …. the stock broker …. calls his mom briefly every morning to check up on her.
He’s such a nice guy.
This morning he said that ….. and I swear it’s true on my son’s soul …. “NOW is a great time to invest because prices are low”. And that’s fuckin’ verbatim.
He’s such an idiot.
Admin,
The side of his suit at the head is unzipped thus doing him no good. Very Funny, and these clowns are somehow supposed to protect us.
Bob.
Didn’t something similar to this happen after the TSA and the “shoe-bomber”?
I have a tickle of a memory about some moron thinking it would be “funny” to tell someone else that he had a bomb in his shoe, plane diverted, NSA take down the “terrorist.”
Wow, talk about cognitive dissonance.
We are in a minimum-to-medium security prison.
A prisoner does not joke with his captors – or fellow inmates – about things they are freaked out about.
It never turns out well for him.
For cripe’s sakes our LEOs are shooting people in their own homes on the word of junkies and youths are being gunned down in the street for failing to follow orders – even orders they can’t hear!
Want a pretty good snapshot of how much our education dollars have been squandered? This would be it.
Even a third-grade educated African would know better than to “joke” about the things his government is telling him are serious.
When you see things like this you start to worry that the rest of the world views us ALL like this, AND when we will need their help – and we will – they are going to be hard pressed to offer it feeling like the world might be better off without us.
Shining example of our abilities to comprehend – and apply – the world around us.
When TSHTF, we are going to be surrounded by people that would starve to death next to a cattle ranch, and die of thirst standing next to a river.
Incapable of EVER figuring things out or “guessing” the reactions to your actions. Our forefathers must be so very proud.
Bingo BB!
It’s obviously a BS call the haz-mat guys are on, but that is a major screw up. At least 2 other people should have inspected him and his suit.
I think my comment about Ms Freud’s son was posted in the wrong thread. I’m the fucking idiot.
OK, sooooo, someone says “I got Ebola!”. Solution? Keep UNPROTECTED people sitting on the tarmac another two hours. Brilliant.
I like the black guy @7:31 …. “I didn’t do nuthin. Shit.”
