Muslim man ejected from airplane for speaking a different language

I checked the thread, saw that nobody had responded to my last post, and thought there was no more reason to post.

I think TI wants to wrestle me or something, though.

Nah you ran off when you ran out of ways to make this a racist thread, and then tried to imply I was racist because I disagree with the premise.

Hey, whatever you have to tell yourself. 👆

So explain how this was racist?

I find it a little troubling how none of the articles that have been posted mention what phrase exactly got the guy kicked off the plane. Right now I'm getting the impression that the offending phrase was "inshallah"(God willing) and kicking someone off a plane for saying that is ridiculous.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. It's strange that the excuse of "Well the person who reported him (may) have been a native speaker" is seen as in itself an explanation when we don't really know what words he was saying that was threatening. If it actually was just God Willing and a passive reference to ISIS then that's a bit much to remove someone for.

This is incorrect, he said he was kicked off for saying inshallah. That does not mean its true. How do you know he didn't actually say something suspicious? Also, is the Muslim woman who reported him a biggot?

Then why aren't we given the exact phrase(s) that the woman who reported him felt was threatening? Then we could decide whether what he said was suspicious or threatening. And I really don't know enough about the whole situation to decide whether the woman is a bigot or not.
