...that was one media headline but they're all in the same vein of containing fact../no spinning at all and rightly, they we found to show discrimination in the courts because they did...with this headline in the vid and on news media sites, there isn't the same factual involved at all, it's almost totally inaccurate...the two people were Pakastani monks and they didn't 'force' anything, it wasn't in the control to do so... that was a decision made by the airline alone, all they could do was to request...but the airline chose to discriminate on gender.../that's clear cut and the lady has an option to bring legal action against the airline if she so chooses to do so.../that's her decision as the airline made theirs as the airline made theirs and discriminated against her in doing so....



...honestly some SD threads start to lose interest pretty quickly in how personal they seem to get with 'point scoring' that it's easy to wonder how much is in concern of the discrimination or story itself...so much 'concern' (by some, I will add that..)...about the respect of a female in this story and yet not the same respect for any female apparent at all when Donald Trump totally and completely disrespects females and more or less said that he practised sexual abuse of females and a defence of his age and his back in the day ways.../streuth....

With all due respect Ammi I don't see why you have to step in to help anyone? posts are made and responded to? I made a point based on Withanos (im beginning to think he is 5 ) post which to me seems pretty obvious, you have said all along through the thread you couldn't see the similarities between the two cases and I respect that, so I assume you again can't see where I am coming from on this

..I wasn't 'stepping in to help' anyone Cherie...I was stepping in..(as that was the phrasing I used..)..to say that I understood what he's trying to say in that an understanding in beliefs/cultures etc is a good thing also in leading to tolerance in the world...because the world's general times at the moment..(and sadly often encouraged by media slanting..)...seem to often be very intolerant.../but without denying that discrimination by the airline did indeed take place...

Maybe just quote his post and the relevant bits them as it came across as defensive to me

...just to be really clear so that there's no misunderstandings/or feeling of 'defence' taking place...I mentioned 'targeting' in another thread recently because I believed targeting in that situation was applicable and had I believed that 'defence' was necessary at all or any targeting taking place in this thread, I would have been equally clear and direct about it...

Why are you beginning to worry he's 5... He has offered by far the most rational and plausible reasoning behind the whole debacle?

Why are you worrying if Cherie's beginning to worry if he's 5 or not? AND 'He has offered by far the most rational and plausible reasoning behind the whole debacle?' - IN YOUR OPINION, which isn't mine. THAT honour goes to Cherie and Northern Monkey - in my opinion.
