….I received (below), your less then Honest response to my concerns about American Airline employees wearing (black lives matter) paraphernalia. Your Bizarre response “stating” that the wearing of such controversial (BLM) material is not “a Political or Partisan Statement” is an Insult to customers and outright mis-representation of the Facts.
Dozens of Cities, Burned, Looted, Destroyed, and vandalized, along with numerous Murders, and all occurring (much of it on Video), as “black lives matter” Protested & Rioted, and you have the Courage to say (BLM) is not Political. Their False Narrative by using George Floyd as a Catalyst was just a “PLOY”, as they did not wait for the proper Investigation to take place, but used wild Vigilante and Insurrectionist tactics, presuming ALL were Guilty, without the Facts!!….(***Evidence now shows that George Floyd died from self-absorbed Drugs).
Cries of Injustice, and Discrimination, have Judicial Pathways, for those seeking legitimate redress, but that path was not chosen by (BLM). Total Law-breaking and total Civil Disorder, were the tools they have openly chosen. ***Is American Airlines saying and endorsing the “Lynch-Mob” Vigilante methods used by (BLM) as an approved so-called (“non-political” method) accepted by A.A., and therefore your employees can go ahead and shove” their (blm) paraphernalia into the Faces of a “Captive-Customer-Audience”, who will have to see these “Words-of-Law-Breakers” for the whole Long Flight. What gives you the RIGHT to compel your passengers to view something that they may find Offensive??….Why do you think you can Take the FREE-CHOICE away from the Passengers, just so you can Pander to a few Employees?? Outrageous!! My seat on your Plane will remain empty, as you have NO-Right to force me to view something I prefer not to see.
Good Riddance A.A. Thomas Pastore / Vietnam Veteran / USMC. We fought to have Freedom-of-Choice,…NOT to have Your Choice forced upon us
Well said. I suspect these companies are getting kick back for doing this and likely their ‘donations’ to blm were reimbursed – like the CARES money cities are receiving. Heard Libby, MT is getting $500k? Half a million? What are the large cities getting. Such utter lunacy – we can never anticipate the continued craziness these psychopaths will come up with.
