What you saw and heard with your own eyes was a video by the accuser (a sensationalist YouTube "star"). It's unlikely 30 people would have complained for him speaking simply speaking Arabic. There is always more to the story. Taking this bait then complaining about "Trump's America" makes you part of the problem.

That's the thing. This occurrence isn't a situation of "racism." Delta did the right thing by kicking a disruptive passenger off. People who are buying Adam's story of racism are taking the bait of believing anyone who cries wolf is a victim. You can clearly see in the video he's the only one who's said anything. And you can look up his past history of faking sensational videos for views (views = fame/money for YouTubers)

According to the comments, the guy got in a fight with another passenger & got kicked off for that, not for the Arabic. I've heard Arabic spoken by passengers on US flights many times & have never seen an issue.

Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.
