What isn't racist these days?

[williepete]

More so than just being in public, as an aircraft passenger, consideration for others is vital to a civil journey. It's bad enough being cooped up for hours in an aluminum tube as it is. If you make a thoughtless action that bothers your fellow passengers and it's politely pointed out, a civil response would be to apologize and stop the behavior.

Not in today's America. Throw the race card. Pitch a hissy fit. Cause your fellow passengers to be hours late and cost the airline thousands in lost time, man hours and fuel.

His parents must be so proud. Cue up Al and Jesse. Time to $hake down Delta Airline$.


Singing, Reference to Ferguson Behind Flight Diversion

An incident report shows that issue was a 27-year-old Wichita man's singing aloud to music playing from his headphones, which bothered other passengers. When he was asked by another passenger and later a flight attendant to stop, the passenger "made references to the recent Ferguson Missouri incident" and "also stated he was being harassed because he was black," according to an incident report released by airport police. The upset and crying passenger went to the restroom several times "and it became a concern to the flight crew" and prompted the diversion, aviation police said in their report.

Black people engage in disruptive behavior for the purpose of being asked to stop so they can claim racism.

Black skin is not a license to do whatever you want. It doesn't confer god hood.

"Racist" is now any word, action, thought or belief that the PC Police feels it can use to its political advantage via threats, intimidation and punishment.

I have long advocated for a website we could visit every morning so that we can go through our day without anyone calling us a racist or trying to destroy our careers.

So far, no luck. My guess is that such a site would have to be constantly updated to reflect this strategic hypersensitivity, and no one has the time.

The guy gets away without penalty while the passengers and airline take the hit.

Airline and cops probably afraid of backlash.
