That really has nothing to do with being on airplane though, does it? There are endless places where you can get within stabbing distance of a group of people.

That really has nothing to do with being on airplane though, does it? There are endless places where you can get within stabbing distance of a group of people. I'd actually expect a plane to the one of the absolute safest places, because like others said, everyone on that place has just become a victim. It doesn't even matter if you like the person being victimized, you're gonna exploit that distraction and beat the fuck out of the dude. In public people are much quicker to just run away and keep themselves safe.
