We all remember when Southwest Airlines pulled a Texas family off a flight when the youngest member, a three-year-old with autism, refused to wear a mask on a flight within the state.
Well, they did it again!
Video shows another passenger with a ‘Black Voices For Trump‘ cap being asked to get off the aircraft for allegedly having his required COVID-19 face mask temporarily down.
Never mind that the man in the video was eating peanuts at the time his mask was down, or the fact that he was wearing a ‘Black Voices for Trump’ cap and a Trump face mask. The latter half of the information above appears to be the suspected reason for asking the man to leave the flight.
The person filming the incident before the flight had taken off asked the flight attendant repeatedly what the airline regulations were for eating on a flight. She specifically asked if there was a rule against pulling the mask down to eat. The flight attendant didn’t appear to want to answer the passengers’ questions in the video.
Some people in the video speculated it wasn’t about the food but about the passengers’ open support for President Trump that led to the incident.
Video below:
Why the gentleman was forced off the flight when almost everyone flying during these COVID-19 restrictions can lower their masks to eat.
Wake up, black America. You’re only wanted by the DEMs for your vote and little else.
“Black Voices for Trump” hat not allowed, but “Black Lives Matter” or “F*** the Police” would have been A-OK.
A creative way to win a law suit without too much pain. Soon Air Marshals will be replaced with air attorneys.
“We don’t serve your kind.”
(Your kind being Trump supporters.)
Enough with this mask bull crap. The China Virus is 30 times smaller than mask filtrations. That's like an automobile driving down a 20-lane superhighway with no barriers or traffic. Follow the science or at least a little commonsense comrades.
He was tossed off the flight for not behaving as a Democrat “house negro” should. QED.
Shall we be honest here? The passenger was not ejected for HIS actions! He was ejected for someone else’s bias and/or threat. ALL flight crew training is clear, if you are still on the ground and have good reason to believe that a disruption can be avoided by rescheduling/ejecting a passenger, you are to take that action. My guess? More than one passengers and/or crew were objecting to the hat etc., so the command pilot authorized the minimal disruption.
Is it right? ‘H’ no, but it is how the LEFT bullies the system into doing it THEIR WAY. Disrupt is their best weapon!
Trump AND peanuts on an airplane?!
Did he have a MyPillow in his carry on too, lol. Heads exploding everywhere!
Before anyone gets bent out of shape, let me address this as an insider.
If you do not listen to the instructions of the flight crew while you are on the ground, you will be removed from the flight immediately. The way it is viewed is that if you don’t listen on the ground, you won’t listen in the air where it is a different ballgame.
Could be have caught the ire of a Biden supporter? Yes. Once the flight attendant tells the captain that a passenger is not listening, they’re off. The captain will support the flight attendant 100% of the time, period.
The Southwest person that you saw in the video is ground operations, they are the ones that have to pull the person from the flight.
Don’t tarnish an entire airline of 50,000 people because of one incident.
The mask policy is under the guidance of the CDC. Like it or not, it is the current policy.
“She specifically asked if there was a rule against pulling the mask down to eat.”
What do they expect their masked passengers to do with the peanuts they give out?
Hey, fella. If I were you, I’d sue.
Thatll be 1/3rd of your settlement for my legal advice.
How did the man show he wasn’t listening?
Were the peanuts served by the airlines??????
“Soon Air Marshals will be replaced with air attorneys.”
Incredibly insightful.
Tough crap if people objected to the hat. Training should have them respond that we have a minimal dress code ant Southwest Airlines and political statements for major party candidates are not squelched.
Southwest obviously dont need my business, so SW can shove it up their bottom line
Watch the video please. The ground ops guy clearly said “It’s the hat.”
Lin Wood had better increase the size of his staff! What an idiot!
For one, he continued to eat with his mask down even with ground operations on the plane at that point. In my opinion, he was being disruptive and looking for attention.
Not only are all the social media enforcers of the New Thought Code, but the airlines as well.
