White man who refused to sell Cam Newton his airplane seat for $1500 accused of racism

There’s a viral video making its way around Twitter this weekend that shows NFL star QB Can Newtown offering a man $1500 for his seat that has more legroom with the unidentified man turning down the generous offer. Have a watch:

But then Twitchy regular Tariq Nasheed entered the debate and accused the man of not taking the money because it “was and insult to his WHITENESS”:

He later doubled-down on the racism charges in an 11-tweet thread, which we won’t bother you with in its entirety. Click below if you want to see all the lunacy:

Or, and we’re just spitballing here, that guy valued his legroom?

Cam Newton is a narcissist.

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) involves a pattern of self-centered, arrogant thinking and behavior, a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, and an excessive need for admiration. Others often describe people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding.Mar 21, 2019

I don’t drink. Never have.

Business Class for international flights.

First Class for domestic flights.

I have the bucks, earned every penny and my comfort means a lot to me. The cost is worth it.

“he was not one to waste money.”

To me flying First Class or Business is NOT a waste of money.

If he wants to fly boxcar its his choice, not mine.

I’ve flown for decades and value my comfort because I’ve seen and experienced the horrors of flying boxcar and just won’t put up with it. . .especially after being abused by TSA.

My comfort means a lot to me. The cost is worth it.

Are we disagreeing on something here?

I simply mentioned what someone I knew prefers to do with his money. I didn’t say that it was what everyone should do.

The same guy loves to Sail and has owned some expensive crewed Yachts. That is where he chooses to spend his money.

He was also embarrassed when his Brother bought him a Porsche for his 50th Birthday. He isn’t a Car guy and he chooses to drive basic transportation. He had a Honda Accord at the time.

Should I know expect to be attacked by Porsche owners? Geez.

What’s with all this defensive Posting here? Friendly back and forth conversations are turning into pissing contests.

It was the comment about wasting money on comfort.

Didn’t mean to be argumentative, apology for that.

When I was growing up my Buddy’s Father was the cheapest guy I ever knew. He leased the cheapest (black) Phone from the Phone Company you could, (back when you couldn’t own a Phone) and they even had a Party Line.

My Mother got one of the first Princess Phones which I think cost an additional dollar a Month to lease and my Friend’s Mother was amazed my Father would let her get it.

Seems like a million years ago.

Everybody has an opinion on what is wasteful and what isn’t. Some people keep their Cars until they fall apart and others buy a new Car every few years. As long as it’s their own money who cares?
