You would have thought it would be a regular day of traveling and get to your destination with no interruption but today it was different. As tourists travel at a fast pace in the LAX airport trying to get to their boarding gate. There was this one in particular man. He was fully tattooed from head to foot with a very outlined buzz cut and a large tattoo that said “420” in bold on his neck and had what looked like a heart right behind his ear. As he walked hurriedly to his flight he was stopped by security for possibly carrying drugs or a weapon on the plane. The security with no hesitation removed him from the line he was in. they asked him for his bag and he immediately realized he was caught he tried to make a quick move and cut to his left because to his right was the security. You can hear walkie talkies going off you can hear the *plop plop plop* of shoes on the floor. He got out some door and had somehow made it out of the airport and was now under the plain that he was trying to board, he was surrounded there were police everywhere. There were police, security, cargo movers there was confusion, fear, excitement. He had nowhere to go he started backing up and walking backward in circles, a policewoman had snuck up behind him and grabbed him by his elbows. He bucked back like a bull in a rodeo, he was struggling, he was scared, he was angry that he couldn't get away with what he was doing. As they cuffed him he tried to get away again but didn't get very far, all he got out of it was being tackled, now he was being arrested and his face was down squished against the concrete. A crowd had gathered around a window to watch as the man was being arrested some were gasping some were saying “he had a weapon for sure” “he had drugs” “he’s dumb” “I feel bad” some cheered some sighed some were happy some were sad. The tourists, business people, and children were all nervous to get on the plane they did not trust anybody they didn't know what to expect next. No one knew who that man was no one knew what he did, all they were thinking was that it wasn't safe.
Everyone arrived in Dallas safely, it was a quiet plane ride, no babies cried no one talked, it was peaceful. When the plane landed there was a sense of relief, a sense of safety, everyone was so happy to be home.
