Let's not.
There is a time for compassion. A Junior hockey team died in Canada. A senior gendarme in France swapped himself for a hostage, and had his throat slashed for his effort. My best friend of 55+ years has inoperable brain cancer. That is the place for compassion.
AA goofed on this one, because no one wants to be THAT guy/gal who "DISCRIMINATES" against a guy who is/was fat, uncouth, sick, out of touch with reality, maybe just got out of prison, maybe mistimed his meds, blah blah, blah. One
"Social Media" post and the employee is DONE!
Urinating in public? On a flying aircraft? Into a cup? Is there anyone on this forum, or the other fora, that would excuse/accept/condone/would sit next to that guy? Show of hands?
Wack jobs are wack jobs, whether armed with an AK-47, or a urine filled cup.
Great job TSA, our 1st line of defense!
Evidently, YMMV.
