Reasonable. Quite reasonable. That is, if it was indeed the airline that refused to let the ticketed passenger board.
But then it would be reasonable also for the airline to compensate the denied passenger for any acutal economic loss as well as hardship and inconvenience for the airline's unilateral abrogation of a contract.

In that sense, his business was not interrupted in any way by the airlines actions.

Since the USA is now on the Amnesty international list as a major torture nation: ie; Cuba, secret prisons around the world and so on your point is moot. The USA is good friends with Nation's that torture, so we are culpable in the Torture you refer to. Campaigning in the USA is part of the route to change. If you knew anything about the world, you would know that other nations look to the USA for guidance on matters such as freedom. All who come to this country have the right to a better life. Just like the catholics in this country that ignore or refuse to practice parts of their religion, Muslims are also trying to update their religion from within.It is easy to be an Arm Chair critic -- not one person Bloging has said,I don't know what I am talking about and need to get educated. I only only know about 20% of what I need to learn on this subject, but at least my 20% is 20% of firm truth unlike most of the others on here whose comments are 100% bigotry and Paranoia.

SO you don't plan on staying here long, right?

Don't you think he did it on purpose? To bring about an ACLU suit that would allow Arab men to wear snarky t-shirts and carry boxcutters onto the aircraft!

Since the USA is now on the Amnesty international list as a major torture nation: Amnesty International is, like the ACLU, CAIR and the UN, run and funded by anti-Americans, and driven by their hatred for America.
They are so blatantly anti-American that they have no credibility except with like minded left leaning socialists.
