Ok, so it isn't as bad as the title. But a muslim family, (USA citizens) was booted off the plane, after one of them, a Lawyer, asked his brother, a anesthesiologist, if sitting next to the jet on a plane was safe. Naturally people freaked out, and the airport booted all 9 of them off. Gave them a refund, but told them to get out.
Even after the FBI cleared them, saying they were innocent, the airport says no dice, go to another airport.
Now that they are offically clear, they can come back.
But the dudes are thinking of a lawsuit.
The airport claims it wasn't based on their appearinces or faith, that it was just a coinidence.
