I was delighted to hear that the perp was badly burned, too bad he didn't completely self-immolate.
I gather the passengers also pummeled him. Too bad he'll be going to a federal pen for the rest of his life like Richard Reid, would be better just to put him in a circle and let all the passengers throw stones at him, like Shirley Jackson's "Lottery."
Next time you go though "heightened security" at your local airport you can blame this human filth.
P.S. I forgot to add that having departed 4 times from LOS over the past year I can attest that passenger screening is quite good, better than TSA. Every passenger is subjected to full gate rape before entering the jetway, including full handheld body scan and rifling through carry on luggage. This is after the usual metal detector screening that is needed to enter the secure area of the terminal (and disposal of liquids). Of course, I can't attest for the integrity of the airport personnel...
