US Marshals are on board many flights nowadays concealed carrying, they typically use super-expanding low velocity handgun rounds that typically don't penetrate the airframe to prevent decompression.

Nah, US marhalls are getting kicked off planes for wearing American Flag masks

No, I'm not joking. Look up Frontier Airlines, they just kicked a US marshall off a plane for having the US flag on his mask

Gonna be hard not to point and laugh when their shit gets augered into the ground like Flight 93 after kicking a Marshal off. Not that I would laugh at the deaths of Americans anyway, but that is just appalling.

The hatred for our flag by fellow "Americans" has my head ready to explode.

Biggest wtf ever. I had heard of this happening, but never considered any possibility that it was a Marshall.

WTF

How can that be even allowed? Don't the US Marshals have override juristiction over airlines pissy little rules? Frontier shouldn't get any more marshals. Phuqq em.

Speciality ammo carries a premium, it’s always been that way.

I believe the word you're looking for is 'Glaser' ammunition

I am SICK of these damn snakes on this plane!

Lol no seriously, you raise a difficult point. Supposedly solved by Marshalls. Hey I know, let's kick them off the flight for wearing a face mask that has the US flag in it, isn't that a great idea? That'll show em!

Nope. Maybe for the pilots.

There is actually a program that arm’s pilots.

I’m a retired detective and I’m been on many many fly trips to pick up suspects I obtained an arrest warrant for who fled and were captured in another state. When I fly armed the pilot and the rest of the crew are always notified preflight of who I am and where I’ll be sitting (in the back if with prisoner). I’m also told if there’s an air marshall or anyone else flying armed on the aircraft and where they are sitting. I’ve been on dozens of flights out of many major airports including JFK, LaGuardia, Newark D.C, etc. in my career during my official duties. Only twice was there an air marshall on board.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. How often were there other armed individuals?
