Man with a Te-shirt on a plane in JFK.

Yesterday a man boarded a plane with an Arabic script on his te-shirt. The JFK securities stopped him and held him after the other passengers complained. They would not feel comfortable being on this flight with a man who had Arabic script on his shirt. The JFK security ask the man to cover up the shirt and he refused to cover up the shirt at first; claiming that it was freedom of speech and it was his right to wear what he wanted as long it was not graph.

The man found legal concealing and awarded $10,000 from the JFK air port. I really do not think that this guy should have received the money and shouldn't have  been allowed to board the plane. I am surprise that they did not jump him at the airport or on the plane( I would have waited until the plane was taxied and push him out the door!) Although he is an American and he does have rights, in this post 9/11 world you do not wear Arabic te-shirts on planes; this should be just common sense, wrong!

Maybe this whole thing was to get attention and get media coverage or even get some money. I am surprise that New Yorkers did not tar him apart right a way! This is not right to do, but in this 9/11 world and all that is happening in the world. You just do not do things to egg people on like this and especially on the plane.  What you do not say while in New York City:

 1.) Do not say New Yorkers suck.

2.) You do not say New York suck,

3.) You in any way say the Yankees suck and they are no good. You will be beaten stabbed and in the Hudson river if you are lucky that is all that happens to you!

The nerve of this guy doing something like this is unthinkable! What was he thinking when he put on that Te-shirt? I do not blame the passenger for being upset at all! Hamm lets see, The guy has a T-shirt with Arabic writing on it, The guy looks Arabic and looks like he should have turban on his head.  Sure I  would feel comfortable and safe with this guy on board! Even though it’s been seven years,  most have not forgotten that day and won't forget! Wearing that te-shirt on the plane was a slap in the face. Instead of getting  that money he should have been held and shouldn't have never been allowed on the plane or even close to a air port. Think before you do this type of stuff and understand how the other people on board feel. You do have right but, I have news for you we do too; we don’t want to see your te-shirt at the air port. If you don’t like it here in the states, get the hell out we don’t need you!!

I have to say that, I miss being in the city like Boston and New York. The city of New York is a great city to be in!  Being up here in Maine is sort-of like being in Green ares  and the twilight zone. I hope I will be moving some time soon -In a year or so- and I'll be glad to get out of here and back to the city!!

Oh yes! GO YANKEES ALL THE WAY!!!
