The airline clearly explained why Kahn and his mate were booted off the the plane. The rules may be silly, illogical, senseless etc but they are the rules and no one is better at applying senseless pointless rules than our American friends. Amir me old china just bear it so you can travel.

SP, //American Airlines has said Khan and his colleague were “deplaned” because they repeatedly refused to comply with crew member requests to stow luggage, place phones in airplane mode and adhere to face mask requirements .// I don't call 'repeatedly' refusing to comply with the crew's requests a 'minor infraction'. It might be convenient to claim that...

You're talking about me, not 'they'.
Why do you say the we routinely play the race card? Are you saying the when people like me speak about racism, we're liars?
Is this also true of Jewish people who highlight examples of antisemitism?
Of women who highlight examples of sexism?
LGBT community and homophobia?
I'm not sure it does.
To claim someone is playing the race card and then to say that all black people do this all the time suggests something about you rather than the subject.

You put forward the case of the TV actor Jussie Smollett. Please explain how this supports your argument that black people routinely play the race card when we don't get our way?
What 'way' was he trying to get?
He was the perpetrator of a hoax. Do you think this outlier, extreme case is typical of what we black people do?

You're talking about me, not 'they'.// - I don;t understand that, I explained above what I meant by they.
//Why do you say the we routinely play the race card? Are you saying the when people like me speak about racism, we're liars?// - no. I'm not talking about people speaking out about racism, I thought it was quite clear that I am talking about people claiming racism in many situations when they don't get their own way. Do you deny that it happens?
//Is this also true of Jewish people who highlight examples of antisemitism?.
Of women who highlight examples of sexism?
LGBT community and homophobia?// - I don't think they are playing the race card, they may have other cards they play.
//To claim someone is playing the race card and then to say that all black people do this all the time suggests something about you rather than the subject.// - I never said that, I said it is common not 100%

sp: "You put forward the case of the TV actor Jussie Smollett. Please explain how this supports your argument that black people routinely play the race card when we don't get our way? " - well he had such a determination to claim that he was a victim of racism that he staged an incident so he could go on the news and rage about the nasty racists that had "mugged" him. Isn't that manufacturing a card game in order to play a race card?
Jussie Smollett wasn't playing the race card. If he was arrested for speeding - doing 100mph in a 50mph zone and claimed he was stopped just because he was black, I could see what you mean - but his case is wildly extreme. To put that forward as an example (no doubt after Googling 'play the race card'), doesn't work.
...unless you think that is something that black people commonly undertake.
Do you?

SP: who said anything about lying, trying to get special treatment by playing the race card is not lying. You are optimising the situation using what you have, fair play, If you can get away with things using it then good luck to you but that doesn't mean it goes unnoticed. I don't know the percentage but there are countless cases out there, do a bit of googling.
