But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.” -

Originally posted by Cyberman View PostIt's commonsense that if a person is sitting they wear their seatbelt. I always keep mine buckled when I am in my seat, regardless of where the plane is. Many people sleep without their seatbelts, and this is plainly stupidity, as dangerous turbulence can happen at any time.
The article states that the plane was circling, and thus it is obvious that it is due to land. Thus, passengers should be in their seats with seatbelts fastened.

Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - EpicurusComment

Having suffered extreme turbulence on a flight from Australia to England in 1989, where the plane dropped thousands of feet twice in seconds and I though I was going to die, and a number of people suffered broken bones, I do regard myself as somewhat of an 'expert' on this subject. Fortunately, I was wearing my seatbelt.Comment

All I can say to the ignorant few is, by all means ignore advice and do your own thing. Just don't expect to be able to sue the airline for your own negligence.Comment
