Disgruntled JetBlue Flight Attendant

Wile I side with Steven Slater formerly a JetBlue Flight Attendant.  He should not have pulled the slide out.  All kinds of things happen when this is done.  Pulling the slide costs thousands of dollars, just to get it rolled up and rectified.  The other cost is in flight delay, that plane is now grounded for hrs, and blocking other planes from getting in and out.  The flight plan needs to be changed. And many other domino affect adjust ments.  I could see him getting momentary insanity and getting off easy as he should.  Hope he doesn't get stuck with a felony.  But still should have some minor mention in his record.  I believe he now realizes the mistake he has made and hopefully now knows he shouldn't let his temper get the best of him.  I too have worked in Aviation, and know of the idiots that are allowed to travel.  I have never had an outburst like his on the job, and hopefully never do.  I can see a lot of people at John F. Kennedy International Airport would cause even more stress as some of the personalities that go into JFK come off as more of a jerk sometimes even when they don't mean to.  Hope he gets enough donations to cover his legal fees.
