Would anyone, anywhere in the west ever publish an article saying people were "furious" or rather "kill themselves" than being exposed to Jewish or Muslim prayer without immediately being labeled as a bigot?

The Hasidics were blocking the galley and refusing to wear masks as required. The annoying guitar guy did not disobey flight crew. Apples and oranges. Only the intellectually dishonest would find a comparison.
What many seem to be advocating is a special exemption for a group booking in which many(not one or two as we've been told in the torrent of demonstrable lies in this story) were causing problems on the flight.
Sports teams, football fans, school groups and convention goers have all been removed as a group if they threatened the safety of the aircraft.
The oppression olympics is worth competing in, if only for the possibility of winning gold at the end of a lawsuit, nothing else.
You crack me up. Sorry the word racism triggered you in my original reply. I will place a trigger warning for you next time so you can keep your eyes closed to the realities of this world. I'm going to now disengage from this conversation. It's going nowhere.
To the OP, I see your point and feel for what these poor people went through. Some of them deserved penalties but as others have mentioned not collectively and not in the manner they did it. This should be a proper learning experience that hopefully LH and those who misbehaved on the flight recognize and grow from.
I have nothing more to add to this exchange.
