Air Law 21

As Don Henley famously said, "How can love survive in such a graceless age?"

Graceless age, indeed. Anyone who has spent time in any American airport can attest to such a state. For, whatever reason, people turn into self-absorbed pigs in our nation's airports.

Run through all the previous Air Laws for all the nasty ways narcissists make our time in airports so distasteful.

Air Law 21 is in response to the image above from ORD a week ago. Seats that are clearly designated for handicapped passengers (the red ones), occupied by four people who are not. A couple of seniors, clearly challenged in mobility, were looking for a spot to sit. None of these people moved.

The impossibly designed American Airlines staging area there results in able-bodied passengers being forced to sit in handicapped seats. But...you don't move when someone in their 80s shuffles forward?

The woman hiding her face, in the image above, absolutely refused to move because her phone conversation was far too important to be interrupted. The couple next to her was finally seated because a gate agent insisted that other people vacate their seats (good on her). Those against the wall were, despite sitting in red handicapped seats, also unwilling to move.

Damn, I hate people like that. So...from this point forward, anyone seeing this kind of ignorance is encouraged to call these clueless people out, embarrass them before their fellow passengers and smack them with the canes used by those deserving of those seats.

If Air Law Marshals are in the area, they are hereby authorized to grease those canes with lube and guide them up these assholes' self-absorbed butts. 

Air Law.
