Newsweak will post anything. Does anyone really believe this happened?

Newsweak cannot disappear quick enough.

This is really sad. I mean, it's not even good tabloid "journalism".

The entire basis of his argument is that he BELIEVES if the woman had been black, she wouldn't have been treated as politely as she was. And somehow, because that's what he BELIEVES, he think that United Airlines has done HIM a disservice.

Then, he claims further mistreatment because he BELIEVES that United's Hispanic Customer Service agent can't possibly understand how he was wronged because the agent is not black.

And THEN he throws out the "white privilege" card.

Anybody that could put their feet on the food tray has a future as a contortionist. Total Bigot BS.

“woman sitting next to him took off her shoes and placed her feet on the tray table”

Yeah, right. What was she, a dwarf yogi with a booster seat?

Both kinds of people do exist.
There is the kind of passenger who is self centered enough to prop their bare, soiled, flaky feet onto the food tray surface, only inches away from their seat mates face. Such a person may be inconsiderate enough to refuse a request to remove those feet.

There is the kind of air passenger who is disgusted by the sight of someone’s bare feet being planted only inches away from their face.

The only thing I don’t get is why the flight attendant didn’t resolve the issue with the girl, or offer one of them a change of seating.

That $1000. voucher, I don’t know what to say about that part. Maybe the crew was only bluffing to make her finally take her feet down.

“Does anyone really believe this happened?”

Not for a fricking second, but there are people who will.

You cannot put your feet up on the food tray if it is in the down position. If the tray is in the up position, the person in front of you will turn around and slap you.

I eat at a cajun restaurant that is popular with blacks. The white employees tell me all the time the blacks will start a loud fight over anything and everything because they know management will agree to comp their meals if they’ll just leave the premises. Notably, the fights only start after those at the table have finished their meal.

Now, let a white, Hispanic or Asian person try that and see if they get that treatment? But because the business is so afraid of the R-word and losing half their clientele, they allow this to happen and just chalk it up as the cost of business.

My solution, throw the everything is racist black guy, and the entitled b1tch princess woman, off the plane.

I’ve worked for United. There no way in hell they would offer a passenger any kind of incentive to remove their feet from an unusual place. The FA would tell the passenger to move it and if not heeded they would possibly be placed on the internal UA NO FLY list going forward. If the FA considered it a safety issue then a possible criminal charge would filed and the passenger would be met at the gate on arrival.
