Woman made racist comment at Los Angeles airport
The incident is from Los Angeles. According to media reports, a photographer named Parvez Taufiq was traveling from CancĂșn to Los Angeles with his wife and three sons on November 24. After landing at the Los Angeles airport, he was sitting on a transfer bus when a woman sitting in front made a derogatory comment against his family.
Other tourists also supported Taufiq
When security was called, the woman justified her actions and said that she herself was a victim. Airline employees don’t care that I’m racist. I am American and you are racist towards me. Meanwhile, when Taufiq said that we are also Americans, this woman replied, ‘You are not American, actually you are from India.’
Meanwhile, other passengers started speaking out in support of Taufiq against the woman and even asked her to get off the bus due to her misbehavior.
Taufiq shared the video
After this incident, Taufiq expressed his displeasure by sharing a video on social media. United Airlines has taken the woman’s behavior seriously and has banned her from flying on its flights in the future.
