Depending on the plane, yes, you can. But commercial airlines aren't able to open cargo doors while in flight, unfortunately. Perhaps they could be fitted with garbage chutes for circumstances like this.

The Boeing 727 was able to open the rear stair in flight, until D. B. Cooper came along and they retrofitted a device to prevent that which could not be overridden from the flight deck.

Could the crew not just zip-tie the unruly passenger and continue the flight?
I'm sure they did zip-tie the women until they got back to Miami.

It's an 8 hour flight. Another 5.5 hours on a plane with a zip-ties spreadneck screaming?

That's too much for anyone!

There was probably no one on board that could legally administer that nor any other sedative.

The disruptive passenger should be held liable and made to pay the airline's and other passenger's expenses for the flight cancellation and be banned from all air travel until it is paid.

Okay. Okay. Then the next best thing - dress in a Dexter kill suit and just carry a big syringey looking thing.

Dunno, they have some big names it looks like. Robert Malone, RFK Jr., that pic above is Del Bigtree who made the "Vaxxed" movie, he was antivax before antivax was cool. I could see a decent crowd amassing. Unfortunately.

Right here in Page County, Virginia. I googled her. She works at Ruffner Family Dentistry in Luray (and she's a Ruffner). The Ruffners are a founding family here in Luray, having come here in the 1700s, from what I gather. I'll continue to go to my dentist in Harrisonburg. Apparently she's now saying she didn't mean to threaten anyone, and when she talked about loaded guns, she meant that figuratively :roll: Don't have a link for that, I saw it on twitter when I was trying to figure out whether I actually know this woman (I don't).

Va. parent threatens to ‘bring every single gun loaded and ready’ if school board doesn’t make masks optional
Just before the Page County School Board voted Thursday night on whether to keep requiring masks in schools — as dozens of school districts throughout Virginia grappled this week with a hotly contested executive order from Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) declaring masks optional — parent Amelia King stepped to the microphone.

King said she had decided, against her normal custom, not to prepare a written statement for the evening’s public comment session, which was recorded on video and posted to YouTube. She warned that, “when I go off the cuff, I get really passionate.” Then she threatened the board with a promise to show up with guns if it did not make masking optional for the rural Virginia district of 3,000.

“My children will not come to school on Monday with a mask on,” she said. “That’s not happening, and I will bring every single gun loaded and ready to, I will call every—”

A board member interjected that King had run over her allotted three minutes of speaking time. King replied: “Mm-hm. I’ll see y’all on Monday” and stalked from the room.

School officials later contacted police, who launched an investigation, and raised the alarm to federal and state officials, including the commonwealth’s attorney.

She said she would bring loaded guns and see you Monday. That’s a threat. No excuse making. Detain her.
