Bieber's Flying High by Kathleen Darling


Justin Bieber brought a whole new meaning to the mile high club. During a flight from Canada to New Jersey, 19 year old Justin Bieber not only gave the flight attendant and pilots one of the most challenging plane rides of their lives, but was smoking marijuana while doing it!
Sources say that Bieber was on his way to the NFL Super Bowl XLVIII when the star verbally abused the flight attendant while he smoked marijuana with his 38 year old father. The elder Bieber was aboard the flight, taking part in the all commotion. According to the report, "the captain stated he needed to request that the passengers stop their harassing behavior toward the flight attendant and after several warnings asked the flight attendant to stay with him near the cockpit to avoid any further abuse."
In almost every plane in the world these days there is a clear ‘no smoking’ sign. That sign actually doesn’t mean you can make modifications for the opportunity to get high. Under the FAA regulations "No person may assault, threaten, intimidate, or interfere with a crew member in the performance of the crew member's duties aboard an aircraft." The pilots were so concerned that they would inhale too much of the pot smoke that they would essentially fail their drug test. Subsequently this forced the pilots to wear an oxygen mask because of the terrible flight conditions (inside the aircraft), and that kind of interferes with the crews performance.
After arriving in New Jersey, the Canadian native and his entourage of ten other people were held for questions several hours after they landed. Justin is living in the United States on a work visa… Which baffles me at this point. What he could possibly be working on since he had outwardly announced his early retirement late 2013?
 Harper College student, Amanda Giovenco, expressed her feelings toward the juvenile star saying “I think it’s his cry for help! He seriously needs to get his act together.” It is peculiar that a young star like him would want to end his career so soon. Bieber’s inner circle was finally granted re-entry after a seemingly ample amount of interrogation.
I used to fully support Justin Bieber and his amazing skills to entice his overzealous crowd. Yet his performances lately have made me an "Unbelieber". He has shown a side of himself that I think he won’t be able to bounce back from. He has dug a grave so deep that the climb back to the top would be Unbeliebable.
Bieber is no stranger to crime at this point in his early life, having multiple run-ins with the police force merely in the past few months. His recent arrest for his ever so intense drag racing, which lasted about three blocks going 60 mph in a 30 mph zone, landed the celebrity in prison. Bieber admitted to officers that he had been smoking marijuana 'all day', and drinking beer when he was stopped at 4am. I’m going to now reiterate that Bieber is 19 years young. The teen phenomenon was also taken to the Toronto police station January 29, facing an assault charge from a harsh encounter with a limousine driver in last mid-December.
At this point his best option is to hop back on a plane to Canada and lay low for a while. Nevertheless, Justin needs to start thinking about his future or else he’ll end up being All Around the World’s new laughing stock of this pop culture generation.
