Scary. You never know when a pilot is going to decide to off himself by crashing a plane. Glad they stopped him.

When I was in my twenties I tried Pysc Mushrooms once, never did them again.
I can't believe they would give that shit to someone with mental issues!

I hear he'd been drinking Coors Light.

lol whos they? drug dealers? hes blaming mushrooms for not sleeping for 40 hours... mushrooms dont do that, they are in your system for maybe 6-8 hours 12 if you keep eating them over time.... i dont even think taking an ungodly amount like multiple ounces would even get you to do that. wanna know what does make you not sleep for 40 hours... meth, pcp, speed, cocaine ect.. this isnt a mushroom issue one fucking bit if he even took any.

DAMN! You can't help but feel sorry for him. His life is fucked.

I do doubt he will do any time.

But he'll never be able to fly again in the US. As crew or passenger.

Sounds like due to the circumstances of the event, he should be sent to a mental hospital not jail. He should never be able to fly on a plane again.

He should run for President!

I feel sorry for him too. He freaked out on some bad drugs.

I recall trying Peyote when younger and it was much more mellow than the mushrooms that I had a bad experience with.
