You don't fly much, do you? Arabs in general act better than Americans do in general on flights.

Are you referring to the time Omar reminded us that "some people did something"?

OK, but you'll have to come up with multiple anonymous "sources familiar with he situation" to quote.

You can't have quality fake news without imaginary eye witnesses.

Mapping one case onto an entire ethnic group is how pogroms and genocide work. You’d think a Jewish person would understand that mechanism better than anyone and avoid using it.

That’s not much of a virtue, seeing as how getting drunk in the first place is pretty pathetic regardless of how you act. Drunkenness in and of itself is pretty despicable and indicates a certain slovenliness and lack of self discipline...just like the passenger in the OP.

So request for brownie points is DENIED!

I really don’t care what y’all think. Trust me, I think a LOT worse about conservatives than you all think of liberals. I ascribe REGULARLY the worst traits of humanity to conservatives, and you don’t wanna know what I mean by the worst. It would turn your stomach.

And yeah..I know damn well that the average Arab would be better behaved on a flight than the average American would be. Especially if alcohol is involved.

No worries, the loathing comes through clearly in your posts. Hatred of others is pretty despicable trait.

Yes indeed it is. Very despicable.

But I’m extremely petty like that. I don’t have the maturity to process people’s hate with equanimity. I return their hatred tenfold, and conservatives hate or ar least are extremely hostile to my folks.

So that’s just how it is and how it’s gotta be. I’d like to say that I wish I was better at handling the situation a lot better than I do and perhaps be more mature about it, but I’d be lying. I really don’t wish that. I’d much rather hope for and wish the worst on people I don’t like...scorched earth all the way.

It is what it is.
