50. Kudos for the Corporate response, HOWEVER,

Nov 2016

that does not excuse the lack of action on the part of the flight crew on board. They should have had the guy escorted off the plane. How many times has a Captain had an innocent muslim (or muslim looking person) kicked off a plane solely based upon the person's look. But a white male can stand in the aisle and mouth off and no action is taken against him? I am a white person but even I acknowledge that, far too often, people with white skin tone are far too often given a pass for bad behaviour.

Thank you, Delta! Raster Nov 2016 #1
