RECENTLY THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A CONTROVERSY ABOUT WHETHER A
YOUTUBE PERSONALITY, WHO IS APPARENTLY MUSLIM, WAS KICKED
OFF THE PLANE.
HIS NAME IS ADAM ñ I SAY THAT, BECAUSE IT'S NOT TRUE ñ HIS NAME
IS ADAM SALEH, LASWELL THAN ONE .6 MILLION YOUTUBE SUBSCRIBERS.
HE POSTED A VIDEO ON TWITTER THE CLAIM THAT PASSENGERS COMPLAINED
OF FEELING COMFORTABLE AFTER HE SPOKE TO HIS MOM IN ARABIC, AND
HE WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ESCORTED OFF
THE PLANE.
THERE WAS 1000 DIFFERENT PROBLEMS WITH THIS STORY,
AND YOU COULD TELL THAT NOTHING WAS UP.
AND HE WRITES ON TWITTER, WTFFFFFFF, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE
HE'S VERY AGGRIEVED, AND HE
STARTS #BOYCOTDELTA.
BUT IF YOU LOOK AT HIS CHANNEL, THE GUY DOES PRANKS, AND
THIS IS THE MOST OBVIOUS PRANK OF ALL TIME.
OF COURSE IT'S NOT REAL.
AND HE DOES PRANKS ABOUT BEING DISSEMINATED AGAINST
BECAUSE HE'S MUSLIM.
THAT'S NOT FUCKING FUNNY DUDE, THAT'S REALLY STUPID.
1ST OF ALL, THERE WAS A REAL STORY RECENTLY ABOUT A GUY
WHO WAS SPEAKING IN ARABIC, NOT TO HIS MOM BUT TO SOME
OTHER PERSON, AND HE DID GET KICKED OFF A PLANE.
BUT NOW, BECAUSE YOU'RE SUCH A JACKASS, AND YOU GO AROUND DOING
THIS, EVERYBODY IS GOING TO
THINK, THOSE STORIES ARE ALL BS.
AND I'VE GOT ANOTHER ONE FOR YOU IN A SECOND, AND THAT
PEOPLE DON'T BELIEVE THE REAL STORIES.
THERE'S HUNDREDS OF CASES OF CONFIRMED HATE SPEECH, HATE
CRIMES, ETC., AGAINST MUSLIMS ñ AND BY THE WAY, A WHOLE HOST OF
ETHNICITIES TOO - THROUGH ALL THESE DIFFERENT TIMES.
YOU DON'T GET ATTACKED THE MOST?
JEWS DO.
THERE ARE MORE ANTI-SEMITIC CRIMES THAN THERE ARE
AGAINST MUSLIMS.
SO THIS IS REALLY SERIOUS STUFF.
TAKING IT LIGHTLY TO GET A LITTLE BIT OF FAME IS REALLY
GROSSÖ PUT OUT A STATEMENT, "UPON LANDING THE CREW WAS
DEBRIEFED AND MULTIPLE PASSENGER
STATEMENTS COLLECTED.
IT APPEARS THE CUSTOMERS WHO WERE REMOVED SOUGHT TO DISRUPT
THE CABIN WITH DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR, INCLUDING SHOUTING.
THIS TIME OF CONDUCT IS NOT WELCOME ON ANY DELTA FLIGHT.
WHILE ONE, ACCORDING TO MEDIA REPORTS, IS A KNOWN TRACTOR
WHO WAS VIDEO RECORDED AND ENCOURAGED BY HIS TRAVELING
COMPANION, WHAT IS PARAMOUNT TO DELTA IS THE SAFETY AND
COMFORT OF OUR PASSENGERS AND EMPLOYEES.
IS THERE THESE EVENTUAL SOUGHT TO VIOLATE THAT PRIORITY."
I HAD A COUPLE AUTHORITIES CONTACT ME BECAUSE I WAS TICKED
OFF AN AMERICAN AIRLINES PLANE AND ASKED IF IT WAS BECAUSE
I WAS MUSLIM.
NOT AT ALL.
I'M AGNOSTIC, BUT HOW WOULD THEY KNOW THAT?
MY NAME IS CENK UYGUR.
THE REASON WAS BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T BRING THE PLANE
AND I WAS LETTING THEM HAVE IT.
THEY DIDN'T DO IT BASED ON RACE, THEY DID IT BASED ON WHO IS
EMBARRASSING USÖ I RECORDING US.
THERE WAS ANOTHER KID RECORDING THEM, HE GUTTED OUT AS WELL.
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ISLAM.
YOU'VE GOT TO KEEP IT REAL, THIS STUFF IS DAMAGING.
A FEW WEEKS AGO, A UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN STUDENT TOLD
POLICE THAT A MAN CONFRONTED HER AND DEMANDED THAT SHE
REMOVE HER HIJAB, LEST HE SAID IT ON FIRE."
TURNS OUT, NOT TRUE.
THE DETROIT FREE PRESS SAYS, "INVESTIGATORS CONDUCTED
WITNESS INTERVIEWS AND REVIEWED MULTIPLE SURVEILLANCE
VIDEOS OF THE AREA IN QUESTION.
THE APARTMENT SAID, DURING THE COURSE OF THE
INVESTIGATION, NUMEROUS INCONSISTENCIES IN THE
STATEMENTS PROVIDED BY THE ALLEGED VICTIM WERE IDENTIFIED.
FOLLOWING A THOROUGH INVESTIGATION, DETECTIVES
HAVE DETERMINED THE INCIDENT IN QUESTION DID NOT OCCUR."
THIS IS JUST LIKE THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA CASE THAT ROLLING
STONE REPORTED ON.
SOME WOMAN THERE CRIED RAPE, SHE MADE IT UP, AND WHAT DOES IT DO?
FIRST, IT'S A HORRIBLE THING TO THE PEOPLE YOU ACCUSED.
IN THE DELTA CASE HE'S ACCUSING THE FLIGHT ATTENDANTS OF
BEING BIGOTED.
THAT'S A TERRIBLE THING TO ACCUSE SOMEBODY OF BECAUSE
YOU WANT TO GET A COUPLE EXTRA VIEWS ON YOUTUBE AND YOU
GET SKEWED AND FUNNY TO DO PRANKS.
INDEED UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN CASE, YOU WILL GET EVERYBODY
THAT GOES TO MICHIGAN, THAT'S
STUPID.
ñ YOU IMPLICATE EVERYBODY THAT GOES TO THE UNIVERSITY OF
MICHIGAN.
AND IN THE UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA, YOU IMPLICATE THOSE
GUYS OF BEING RAPISTS, AND YOU DO DAMAGE TO REAL VICTIMS,
WHO NOW HAVE LESS CREDIBILITY BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPID IDEAS AND
PRANKS AND JOKES, AND BECAUSE YOU WANTED THE SPOTLIGHT.
I KNOW THEY AREN'T GOING TO LISTEN, BECAUSE EVERYBODY
IS ASSESSED WITH THE SPOTLIGHT.
I GOTTA GET FAMOUS!
BUT THIS IS REALLY STUPID AND A SICK TO DO IT.
