There are Two Sides to Every Story

so here's one from EasyJet, which involves racial profiling and a toilet. Apparently a passenger was in the bathroom for a long while. A crew member knocked, claimed there was no answer, and opened it up, exposing the gent, who is now making some noise.

I'm sympathetic to a degree to the guy, it's embarrassing. But then, how is it ok to stake out an airplane stall for 10+ minutes?

Staff claimed he was in the toilet for over 15 minutes, while Kayani argues it can’t have been more than 10.
He alleges the incident was racially motivated due to his Pakistani heritage and Muslim faith.
“I think it was racial discrimination,” said Kayani. “They can see the colour of my skin."

So he admits it could have been 10 minutes. And if he was in there dying he would complain that no one checked on him. And they immediately closed the door. And how did they know the colour of his skin through the locked door?

Sympathy level = 0.5/10. If that.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

If the gentlemen had a heart attack or stroke that same crew would either be negligent for taking so long to open the door, or heroes for opening the door.

How can you tell someone’s race when they’re locked behind a bathroom door?

As an expression of gratitude for giving me free drinks I once banged a fine female flight attendant during a flight out of Boston Logan.

It only took 4 months minutes.

It only lasted that long because I was pretty drunk.
