Carson Daly
Gay People Wouldn't Have Stopped Crazy JetBlue Pilot

It all went down on Daly's L.A. radio show this morning ... when he was talking about the flight and said, "Most of the people were on their way to some sort of security conference in Las Vegas ... it was like a bunch of dudes and well trained dudes ... thank god."

He laughingly continued, "With my luck, it would be like ... 'this is the flight going to (the gay pride parade) in San Francisco ... I mean, that would be my colleagues."

Then, changing his voice to sound like a gay stereotype, Carson said, "Uh, we're headed down to Vegas for the floral convention."

3:10 PM PDT -- Carson has released a statement on Twitter ... saying, "This morning on my radio show I attempted to make fun of myself & offended others by mistake. I sincerely apologize."

Jet Blue pilot Clayton Osbon suspended, charged after meltdown

Federal authorities on Wednesday charged a Jet Blue pilot whose midair meltdown on a New York-to-Las Vegas flight forced his co-pilot to lock him out of the cockpit and make an emergency landing while passengers restrained the distraught captain.

The pilot, Clayton Osbon, was charged with interfering with a flight crew by the U.S. attorney in Amarillo, Texas, where the plane made its emergency landing, the Associated Press and Amarillo.com reported.

Osbon's rant began when the flight was more than three hours into its journey. Witnesses, several of whom recorded video of the incident, said the pilot became enraged after he was locked out of the cockpit by his co-pilot, who had become worried by the captain's erratic behavior. A passenger on the jet who was an off-duty pilot entered the cockpit and helped land the plane as several passengers used their belts and plastic handcuffs to hold down Osbon. Osbon was taken off the jet in Amarillo and hospitalized.

Jet Blue said the FBI was investigating the incident, which it said appeared to be more the result of a medical issue than security-related. "As the events unfolded, it became clear that security was also an element of this episode, but not the overriding issue in our opinion. The FBI has said terrorism is not a factor in this incident," the airline said on its blog, Blue Tales.

8. JetBlue captain grew increasingly erratic on plane

Emergency workers tend to a JetBlue captain that had a "medical situation" during a Las Vegas-bound flight from JFK International airport, Tuesday, March 27, 2012, in Amarillo, Texas. Passengers said the pilot screamed that Iraq or Afghanistan had planted a bomb on the flight, was locked out of the cockpit, and then tackled and restrained by passengers. The pilot who subsequently took command of the aircraft elected to land in Amarillo at about 10 a.m., JetBlue Airways said in a statement.

17. What a horrible time for all involved.

It sounds like the pilot was suffering possible PTSD. I'm glad everyone is ok.

[Control-Z]

16. Oh, my.

That must have been frightening.

3. So he doesn't know what happened when Gabrielle Giffords was shot?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Then again, Daly is certainly no Daniel Hernandez Jr.

[CurtEastPoint]

and how the drag queens and other gay boys kicked the shit outta the cops. What a stupid thing for him to say.

[Chorophyll]

[Honeycombe8]

[opiate69]

20. one of the leaders of my local bdsm community...

is a fully vested, old-school leatherman who is probably one of the most "manly" guys I`ve ever known... the things he could do to a weasely little fuck like Daly would leave him in a quivering heap of tears and blood...

[provis99]

21. and he can say that, because he's a hulking macho man himself...

Glass houses, Mr. Daly...

[RZM]

22. He's always been a tool, going back to his MTV days

I never could stand him. He has this off-putting air of smugness and falsity. He's one of those celebs that I've always pictured as a prick off camera.

[TrogL]

23. I'm gay (ok bi)

I consider my peers to be the people running towards a problem.

I've broken up fights between people twice my size and restrained criminals.

I'd take down an out of control passenger (or pilot) in a heartbeat.

25. Hey Daly, you dipshit....MARK BINGHAM!

Mark Bingham

[Norrin Radd]
