I feel sorry for the accused.
The “security incident” that forced a New-York bound flight to make an emergency landing at LaGuardia Airport on Saturday turned out to be a misunderstanding — after an airline passenger mistook another traveler’s camera for a bomb, sources said Sunday.
American Airlines Flight 4817 from Indianapolis — operated by Republic Airways — made an emergency landing at LaGuardia just after 3 p.m., and authorities took a suspicious passenger into custody for several hours.
It turns out the would-be “bomber” was just a vintage camera aficionado and the woman who reported him made a mistake, sources said.
Why in the world was the passenger in custody for “several hours”? They didn’t do anything wrong.

A false statement is a false statement. You could argue that all false statements are made out of stupidity, but false remains false. Charge the accuser with criminal stupidity and be done with it.

Whoa! A Runaway confession? Can't wait for what follows!
Yes, we do. Runaway statements are make out of stupidity, and ignorance, but remain false. The only question remaining, is it intentional? Or is he really that stupid? I tend toward the latter, from long experience.

You're on a roll tonight aristarchus. Or, should I address you as Nazi Grammama? Or runaway1959? Please, make up your mind(s). Your split personalities are tiresome. I understand that you can get professional help to sort them all out.
