>>passengers. This patriotic passenger did not like that message and went to
>>the stewardess with a complaint. The stewardess then went up to the cockpit
>>and conveyed the questioning attitude of the two passengers to the captain. He
>>(she?) in turn radioed ahead to the KCMO airport. Upon landing, the plane
>>was surrounded by a SWAT team and a 45-minute investigation ensued.
>> We must be on guard that the super-patriots do not lash out against us.
