You really have to wonder what the world is coming to when a flight won’t take off until the ’suspicious looking men of asian origin’ are removed from the plane.
I wish I was joking.
This is like some scene from a fairly pathetic american ‘moovie’ where the group of passengers get together, chanting george bush’s name and singing their supposedly glorious anthem while forcing fellow passengers to disembark because they don’t like the colour of their skin…
It’s sick, and it’s wrong, and if something isn’t done about it then this will be the first of many such incidents.
A new crime as identified by Metropolitan Police Chief Superintendent Ali Dizaei - that of “traveling whilst Asian” - has sprung up this morning. If nobody objects, it simply becomes a fact of life. Are we supposed to blindly accept this is ‘the way of the new world’?
Here’s the best bit: The two men were under suspicion for, wait for it, “wearing jackets and checking their watches repeatedly” - I MEAN REALLY, WHO WEARS A JACKET TO FLY TO COLD CLOUDY ENGLAND, AND WHO ON EARTH WOULD CHECK THEIR WATCH AT AN AIRPORT: IT’S NOT LIKE YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW LONG YOU’VE GOT TIL YOUR FLIGHT LEAVES, OH NO, YOU’RE CLEARLY A FRICKING TERRORIST!!!
Reports on this pitiful incident:
CNN; Independent; Times Online; Guardian; BBC;
And in case you’re bored and you’re as pissed about this as I am, why not let Monarch Airlines know what you think…
