There’s pin-demonium brewing at American Airlines.
Top brass at the nation’s largest commercial jet carrier is facing turbulence from within after it announced that flight attendants are now allowed to wear Black Lives Matter pins on their uniforms while on duty.
The move has irked some of American’s white New York staffers, including those who have spouses or relatives who are cops — because they consider the BLM movement divisive and anti-police, saying it promotes or condones violence.
“I take offense to this,” one veteran flight attendant said in an email to airline management obtained by The Post. “Serious offense. My husband is a LEO (Law Enforcement Officer), as was my deceased father and as far as I’m concerned ALL LIVES MATTER.”

American Airlines are economic fools. If I were the CEO of American Airlines I would ban anything political on the uniforms, mask etc of my personnel. Although I am constitutional conservative it all would be banned be it left or right. My job as CEO is to make money for my company.
I would care not what they wore and did when not on duty and not associated with American Airlines. My criteria would be, "are you doing a good job and are you making my company money." If you are making me money, I want to keep you as an employee. If you are not, we shall get rid of you regardless of race, creed, sexual orientation religion etc. so long as firing you is legal.
What’s their policy on what a passenger can wear. As someone has already suggested, how about a BLM pin with a slashed circle over it, for instance.
Congrats on it working!
Decades ago, Crocker Bank “lost” a $25,000 account of mine when I was working overseas (worth about $250,000 today). The branch manager lamely said “You must of have bounced a check.” I went to the library and got the addresses of the state banking commission heads and the corporate executive staff at the bank, all whom got a personal letter from me wherein I called out the branch manager by name. Thereafter, whenever I went into the branch, he was all “Yes Sir Mr. ABCD” and “No Sir Mr. ABCD” I recall him squirming a lot when he walked, too. Got my money back in no time at all.
antifa and Burn Loot Murder are right out of mao’s little re book.
Burn Loot Murder is just Black KKK
```
and in the irony of the times, Burn Loot Murder is mostly white, as are the black-shirted Antifa; you see very few blacks actually rioting with either group, unless free stuff is involved
Antifa and BLM are nothing more than successors to the KKK. All are or were part of the Democratic Party and had their origins within the party.
keyboard spew alert
Headline...”American Airlines backs Communist Takeover.”
How about a pin that tells the truth. Democrats started the KKK.
Understand why they allow “BLM”.
“I hate America and support its destruction” is a bit wordy for a button.
Let them wear an anti abortion pin and see what happens...
Hell, if American Airlines want to get on board the Marxist train let them go all in. Let’s have the federal government unilaterally take ownership of the airline with NO COMPENSATION. Let the managers get essentially the same wages as all the other employees. The services of the Board of Directors are no longer needed and all their compensation needs to be ceased immediately.
All these airline CEOS are Marxist from the Ivy League schools. They are cowards. Unfortunately the employees dont have much lev know thanks to the covid hoax.
Blm is a terrorist organization. Members are criminals. Supporters are too. The airline is promoting terror.
You reminded me of a Walter Williams term when he was subbing for Rush Limbaugh. “The Klan with the tan”.
Yet another reason, aside from surly gate agents and flight attendants, nasty aircraft, and poor on-time service, not to fly AA.
Last time I flew was May, 1996. This garbage makes me glad at that decision.
In the mean time I have been all over the US, driving everywhere I go.
We live in such an awesomely beautiful country.
That is nuts.
Good. American Airlines is anything but with this dumb move.
