Backlash Brewing: British Airways BANS Stews from Drinking Coffee in Public

On a day in which I've read about some incredibly stupid shit going down (Matt Dowd fired for speaking truth; America's pastime going full-on Nazi sypathizers) this is still just about the stupidest thing I've seen. Here, I'll paraphrase Charlie Kirk: I would be nervous if I thought my pilot hadn't had a cup of coffee or 10 before taking the helm.

Coffee is the most common beverage in the world. What's next, banning BA employees from peeing?
