He's a disgrace in general. It turns out that the day before this incident, he was arrested for driving drunk, ramming 2 police cars and trying to hit pedestrians. He posted a $65k bond and was released. He hopped on the plane the next day and caused all this commotion. What is sad is that the news focused on his ecig use rather than the fact that he was just an A hole.

As with all things that the establishment is against, the media will repeatedly focus on undermining their opponents.

How do you "light" an electronic cigarette? Semantics, I know. Still wish they would at least try.

I stealth vaped on a plane, not difficult and oh so satisfying. The trick is to not yell, "Allah Ackbar!" Difficult for some I'm sure, but with a little effort anyone can stealth a vape here and there.

I'm not very worried about him being used as a poster boy for vaping.

This guy is from Saudi Arabia and was screaming about Allah and Osama Bin Laden and such. He had been arrested for DWI the day before. During that arrest he had run from the cops and he hit two police cars. Terms of his bail said that he couldn't leave the state, and he was on a flight to Houston.

Throw his terrorist loving .... in a deep hole, then fill the hole.

Darn! Why do people like this have to mess everything up..As soon as the media finds anything that even slightly has something to do with e-cigs they all try to post about it. I dont think the e-cig played a major part in this even though it was the main point of that story, and even if the guy was worried about his e-cig he could have responded differently!
