When these morons do this kind of thing I always wonder if they'll look back in five or ten years and realize how cringe worthy their actions were. Will they wise up and be embarrassed at how stupid and ignorant they made themselves look?
I've been assured many times by Conservatives that AR15s are not assault weapons and are reasonable for non-military and non-law enforcement to own, so why is that bothering her?
They are only called assault rifles when civilians have them. When cops have them they are just "long guns" or "Patrol rifles". Less scary

So. It seems grandma and grandpa bought the tickets, for all the extended family. This woman and her husband and 2 toddlers, and some siblings.
If they hadn't been so outrageous, the others should have gone on the cruise, IMHO. What compromise was the grandfather trying to strike? She either goes on the cruise, or she doesn't. He was trying to get her on under a compromise?
Apparently they behaved so badly security had to be called to get the whole clan off the boat.
Uh, maybe because she'd be out in the middle of the ocean and possibly days away from adequate medical facilities should she go into labor or have complications?
Yes but 25 weeks is still over 2 months from full term. It's an arbitrary number.

I'm not exactly sure what they're thinking, but it can't be a coincidence that 25 weeks is considered the age of viability. So if she delivers in a hospital, it's highly likely the baby will survive, but very unlikely if she delivers on a cruise ship.
As with all other decisions businesses seem to be making in this era, the decision is probably made completely from a financial liability standpoint.
