This is why we can’t have nice things.
A fist fight broke out on an American Airlines flight from Las Vegas to Charlotte this week after a passenger refused to comply with the airline’s mask policy.
The fight was caught on camera by another passenger and shows two women swinging their fists and pulling each other’s hair while the other passengers urge them to stop.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
A spokesperson for the airline later confirmed in a statement that a passenger on flight 1665 “failed to comply with our mandatory face covering policy after boarding the aircraft prior to departure,” according to local TV station WSOC-TV.
The maskless woman was then “asked to leave the aircraft and became disruptive, resulting in an altercation with other passengers.”
Seriously, people, just wear the damn mask.
Watch.

Yeah, some people want to actually get home and not deal with your stupid ass. Funny that.

Did she show her card from the non-existent Federal Right To Breathe Agency?

Unless I see blood it’s just a fake fight.

An example that obnoxious, ignorant and uncompromising “Karens” include women (and men) of color.

Thank you, so let’s not hear any more whining from triggered White supremacists about how “Karen” is a racial slur!

They tell you to wear a mask before you board and to keep in on during flight. Either you don’t listen or if you did why board if you are going to disrupt an entire airplane. Find yourself another way to wherever you’re going… So simple.

Wear a mask or don’t fly unless you can afford your own private plane. I know people in that business and you have to pony up quite a bit (think five to six figures) but pay the piper if you can’t can’t follow community safety rules!

How did she get past the gate without a mask?

People are wearing them when they embark and disembark but then take them off during the flight. It’s horrible. The FAA and/or Trump needs to make this a federal mandate similar to seat belts are required on the plane and no smoking. The airlines don’t have a lot of leverage w/out a federal mandate/

That looks like the ghetto mobile. I’m sorry but this is Exhibit A as to why the BLM movement is a major FAIL. Last year, I had to take a bus from Pittsburgh to Cleveland and I was the only white passenger. 3 fights broke out during the trip and the bus driver had to make several emergency stops. The 2.5-hour bus ride to 4.5 hours b/c of this nonsense.

So one person refuses to wear a mask and this account used it as an excuse to not comment on the story, but to attack black people and BLM.

American Airlines, once a classy airline is now just Megabus in the sky. Fly JetBlue.

JetBlue’s main fleet are AIRBUS. It’s a discount airline anyways so your statement makes no sense. How about don’t fly anywhere right now while there is a pandemic going on? All the airlines have classless ppl anyways.
