The airlines in the US have done as PTravel indicated, so his comment is not absurd even as this incident may be different than a FWB incident.

Most FWB denied boarding or deplaned incidents of which I am personally aware have never involved going to the media. A lot of people hit by anti-Muslim bigotry don't do anything formal in response to it -- unfortunate as I would like to see more lawsuits openly won against paranoid airline personnel and passengers that flag down innocent persons at airports and on board planes for "additional" "security" hassles.
