As pacifist I dont agree to that. I know a lot of cowboys and so called heroes want to play with it until one pilot shoots the other? because they cannot handle themselves? NO WAY no weappons into the cockpit !!
What a well thought out, insightful response!
Guess what? Pilots are already armed in the US. Not too many yet, but they are being trained.
I'd sure love to have my family in the back of a pacifist's airplane when the bad guys breach the cockpit!
It's far better to die (and have a bunch of other people die as well) for YOUR beliefs than to stand ground and react responsibly to the situation......... unbelievable.
