Doctor Kicked Off Plane For Reciting Prayers -- Threat Uttering Drunk Remains On

Posted on Sunday, August 20 at 10:31 by RPW
Farooq said the allegation came from a passenger who appeared drunk and had previously threatened him during the trip. http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2006/08/18/doctor-winnipeg.html ------------------------------------ A drunk uttering threats would certainly be more of a threat to the safety of the aircraft than would a man uttering prayers............

    Clear case of discrimination against the doctor's race and colour. At least he got an apology. This one hit the news, how many don't?

    And don't forget the religious angle either.

    Hey, if you want extra wiggle room on that long flight you're on, just tell the crew that the person seated next to you looks <i>very</i> suspicious. Works great so long as the person looks like a Mulsim "terrist" - dark skin, accent, you know the drill.

    ...And the guy who was told to change his t-shirt because it read 'We will not be silent' in Arabic,

    ...And the passengers who refused to let the plane leave because they heard two Asian guys speaking Arabic.

    The writing is on the wall, the major airline industries have at most a few months before they all start tanking. The terrorists have won, largely due to the hysteric way our Western media has chosen to handle this.

    I predict massive seat sales and an aggressive media campaign to get passengers back on board. 'Your letting the terrorists WIN!' or something along those lines.
