Brawl Over Boombox on Spirit Airlines Flight Caught on Camera

[Tantalust]

I'm going to wear a tuxedo during my next 1st class flight, just to get funny looks or p*** everybody off, whichever occurs first.

Thats one of the reasons I don't fly anymore; who wants to be stuck in the air with a gang of low lifes breathing down your neck?

I don't think so. When it is men, and especially Black men, the reaction is often an arrest. I watched a video where a Black female was getting very belligerent in court and the officer on duty didn't even reach for his gun. A Black male came near and the officer reached for his gun.

When I read the title, I was thinking "I hope these weren't Black men involved". One reason is embarrassment. However, I do notice that women are more likely to be treated with kid gloves compared to men. And if it's Black men involved, there is an even higher likelihood for rougher treatment.
