Arabic comedian thrown off flight

[Thunder Bolt]

The statement from Delta airlines reads slightly differently from Twitter.

Delta issued the following statement this evening regarding Flight 1:

Upon landing the crew was debriefed and multiple passenger statements collected. Based on the information collected to date, it appears the customers who were removed sought to disrupt the cabin with provocative behavior, including shouting. This type of conduct is not welcome on any Delta flight. While one, according to media reports, is a known prankster who was video recorded and encouraged by his traveling companion, what is paramount to Delta is the safety and comfort of our passengers and employees. It is clear these individuals sought to violate that priority.

Even a five minute Google suggests that's debatable at least and total BS at most.

Maybe you should have read what you linked.

If an immigrant seeks to engage in peaceful, voluntary transactions that do not threaten the freedom or security of the native-born, the government should not interfere."

The platform does allow for control over the entry of people who pose a credible threat to security, health, or property.

The ideology of Islam does pose a threat to the native born when coming from areas where extremism is present. That's an indisputable fact.

So did he get thrown off or not?

Don't expect any consistency from the breitbart boys

Breitbart aren't Libertarians.

Try again.

No it's not and I've picked you up on this before. Grouping all Islam together shows a fundamental misunderstanding of its different sects and philosophies. Looks like you didn't read the last reply I gave you on this over generalisation

Interesting, this makes more sene. the truth is probably somewhere in the middle

 

[Half Time Pies]

The leader of the Nation of Islam agrees with Trump.

That's quite telling.

Why, what does that tell you? Does the nation of islam speak for all muslims??

Nah, there's a lot of crossover. It seems a lot of the so-called 'alt-right' like describing themselves as Libertarians because it sounds sexy and cool and burnishes their 'anti-mainstream' credentials, but whenever an issue like immigration of muslims comes up they revert to their bog-standard right-wing talking points.

Actually it's a great starting point when trying to create a vetting process to weed the garbage from the good. Stop them all until you ascertain which sects pose a threat and which do not and formulate that into a process that significantly lessens the chances of extremists coming in and it removes the Russian roulette process that is in place at present.

I have a friend whose name is Michael Kelly, a police officer no less.

He flew from Melbourne to LA in around 2009/10 and when he went through customs they took him into a room for over an hour an interrogated him because they have a list of names which they receive an alert over and a Michael Kelly was on that list.

He was released once they ascertained he wasn't the Michael Kelly who was on the list due to activities in Northern Ireland apparently.

The same thing happens to my mate Saddam Hussain.

It isn't an indisputable fact at all, it is a point of view that is discussed over and over on this board. In fact, in present times I would say that this is one of the most disputed ideas around.

Bingo

 

[scamander]

it's probably worth looking into this chap a bit more, he's a known prankster who has released clips of himself trying to get reactions from people, often on planes. Here's an article which details his form in this area.

There's not a lot of cross over really. alt right are far right, how exactly does a far right group cross over with an ideology that supports gay marriage, abortion, decriminalising drugs etc?

What you're describing and falling for is the same folly of people who thought the Tea Party was Libertarian after it was hijacked by the right.

The alt right can describe themselves how they wish, doesn't make them Libertarians though. Not even close.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

It turns out he has a history of trying to cause trouble on planes and then playing the victim when one back fired and he was kicked off, more than likely getting the reaction he wanted.

He should be black listed from all future flights and potentially prosecuted.

The truth is out there somewhere. Forget the discussion about Muslims, libetarians, etc etc etc. It's all agenda.

Too many native people from many different nations have died at the hands of foreign Muslims to even try to deny it's not a fact.

Islam is a far right ideology that deserves no more protection from criticism than any other extreme far right or left ideology does.

So did he get thrown off or not?

He did get thrown off, what is in dispute is the reasons for being thrown off. We only get to see the process of him being removed from the plane and his objections, but not what occurred in the moments before.

If he has been deliberately provocative, then I would guess Delta and their lawyers will have a field day with him.
