9 Muslims Ripped From Airplane After Uttering THESE Sickening Words According to recent reports, nine Muslim passengers were kicked off an AirTran flight heading to Orlando from Regan National Airport, after two passengers reported a suspicious remark. The party, who were compromised of eight U.S. born citizen including three children, were headed to a religious retreat in Florida. The FBI later characterized the incident as a misunderstanding, and the group was cleared for travel. The damage had already been done, however, and AirTran refused to book them on another flight. My brother and his wife were discussing some aspect of airport security, Kashif Irfan, one of the passengers explains. The only thing my brother said was, Wow, the jets are right next to my window. I think they were remarking about safety. Irfan claims that he and the other members of his group were clearly profiled because of their appearance, claiming that six members of their group dress in traditionally Muslim garb. Still, Tad Hutcheson of AirTran maintains that the incident was simply a misunderstanding, and the airline acted according to policy. At the end of the day, people got on and made comments they shouldnt have made on the airplane, and other people heard them, Hutchenson claims. Other people heard them, misconstrued them. It just so happened these people were of Muslim faith and appearance. It escalated, it got out of hand and everyone took precautions. After the decision was made to remove the group from the flight, all 104 passengers were ordered off of the plane to be re-screened. Their luggage was re-screened as well. For us, it just highlights that security is everybodys responsibility, Ellen Howe, spokeswoman for the TSA told reporters. Someone heard something that was inappropriate, and then the airline decided to act on it. We certainly support the pilots call to do that. What do you think of the incident? Was the pilot justified in taking the actions he did?
