100 high school seniors ejected from plane in NY
A New York school says they don't feel an AirTran flight crew was justified when they kicked a group of about 100 students and their chaperones traveling from New York to Atlanta off of a plane for alleged bad behavior...
People with bad behavior got kicked out of plane all the time. Except one student, Jonathan Zehavi told CNN he felt the students were targeted by the flight crew because they are Jewish. So what the airline did is considered a hate crime? Link: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/06/05...ing-too-rowdy/ |

Woah, not what I expected when I opened this thread. Thank God they were merely kicked off the flight instead of ejected.

Without reading the link and just commenting in general, why is it that anytime something happens to someone they always just say it is because of their race, religion, or sexuality? No one ever accepts or even entertains the thought that they just might be deserving of whatever came to them.

Once victimhood status has been established everyone else owes them something or you’re a heartless collaborator with those victimizing them and relieves the victim of any responsibility for their own actions.

This mentality couldn't possibly be the result of hundreds of years of straight white men ****ing over other groups of people so that straight white men can remain in power.

Straight white men have also fought for the equal rights and freedoms for those not straight, white or men.

So because some straight white men aren't total assholes, we should pretend like other groups aren't oppressed and don't have valid claims to "victimhood" a substantial amount of the time? I'm not sure what your point is.
