Tolerance on Parade

[BigTex]

The meltdown continues with no end in sight.



A passenger claimed he was removed from a JetBlue flight on Thursday after an incident involving President-elect Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka.

Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner were on a flight at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport on Thursday when a passenger confronted them, according to Mark Lasner, who tweeted about the encounter between his husband and the couple.

"Ivanka and Jared at JFK T5, flying commercial. My husband chasing them down to harass them. #banalityofevil," Lasner said in a now-deleted tweet.

Lasner said in another deleted post that his husband "expressed displeasure in a calm tone" about Trump and Kushner's presence on their flight when "JetBlue staff overheard, and they kicked us off the plane."

Lasner also tweeted a photo appearing to show Ivanka on the flight.

JetBlue said in a statement that "The decision to remove a customer from a flight is not taken lightly."

"If the crew determines that a customer is causing conflict on the aircraft, the customer will be asked to deplane, especially if the crew feels the situation runs the risk of escalation during flight," the company said in the statement. "In this instance, our team worked to re-accommodate the party on the next available flight."

TMZ reported that the passenger was verbally berating Ivanka and "jeering" at her three children.

"Your father is ruining the country," the man said, according to TMZ. "Why is she on our flight. She should be flying private."

NBC News could not independently confirm the content of what was actually said, and Lasner said in his since-deleted tweets that it was a calm or peaceful confrontation. Lasner did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The president-elect's daughter was on a flight to San Francisco, but was ultimately headed to Hawaii, a public relations representative for Ivanka Trump told NBC News.

The United States Secret Service referred inquiries to JetBlue but said Ivanka Trump has full Secret Service protection as the daughter of the president-elect.

Why would Ivanka be on a Jet Blue Flight ? In coach ?

Why would Ivanka be on a Jet Blue Flight ? In coach ?

So she and her family could
a. show the people how common they are
b. Trump loyalty point are redeemable at Jet Blue
c. be berated by a pissed off democrat with bonus points for a protected class

As a Trump spokesman on FBN says.."imagine if this were someone mocking and harassing Michelle Obama traveling with her children."

I've read several stories from several different news sources. The truth is in there somewhere, but we haven't heard it yet.

When I see one of the parties "tweet" a statement that looks like this, I know which side I come down on.

They considered criticizing the guy, but found out he was gay..protected group member.

Did the Secret Service personnel NOT intervene? I did read the Ivanka didn't want to escalate the confrontation but there is no way she should have had to put up with that. It was very rude and crude behavior and especially with her children there. Also she and her family have every right to be on that flight. In fact, I'm impressed they took that airline. What in the world is wrong with these idiots that would "jeer" at children and accost people people in such a way?

Spawns of Trump shouldn't be harrassed. Of course, the fact that it was a same-sex couple that did it has no bearing unless you're hung up.
