Flying freight has never sounded more appealing.

It's not racist airlines, it's opportunist partisans and media.
Airline operations are challenging and there are multiple opportunities for any and all people to be inconvenienced, displaced, or ignored.
Partisans and the media profit by exaggerating the extent and occurrences of racism.
So, when the inevitable slight or inconvenience that happens to anyone, happens to a member of a media appointed target group of racism, that person has been conditioned to believe the incident is not happenstance, but an incidence of racism.
If a customer believes (falsely or not) they are the victim of racism, it will understandable cause them to be upset and act disruptively.
Airline employees have been trained to deal with disruptive passengers. They are not being racist, if they are reacting to the behavior and not the physical attributes of the person.
The behavior was set in motion, not from actual racism by the airline, but by the zeitgeist of ubiquitous racism that partisans and the media have fostered for their own benefit.
That is a cancer to our society.
Instead of the NAACP charging American Airlines with racism, they should be scrutinizing the motives and affect CNN and the self fulfilling charges of racism are having on the people they are supposed to be championing.

Didn't you know that everyone is racist now a days? Sad that the NAACP uses this as it's new stance.

They're meeting with AA leadership to discuss how to improve the image. So much for considering both sides of an issue... But of course, this forum is chock full of pilots, not exactly the most diverse group. So I'm not surprised.

On one hand, some people do over react to minor slights. On the other hand, some people are actually bigots. There is right and wrong on both sides, and immediately villifying one half of the debate is not productive.

Total, 100% pure, dog crap. Fall fund raiser, nothing more. Getting to the point where you either have to live somewhere it's never necessary to travel or have a pal who'll let you borrow the Lear. AA, all of them, only opponent they've willingness to take on is their own employees.
