Your post amounts to &quot;I&#x27;m glad these idiots found a voice, now that they finally affect us all, we can do something about it&quot;. But your assumption that they affect us all equally is not supported by this story, otherwise all passengers on that plane would have been taken off and screened by police.<p>I think you fail to realize that these idiots affect mainly minorities, as that is how uneducated minds work: they can&#x27;t see past their own identity (and by the power of numbers, most idiots are white). So what you&#x27;re effectively saying is &quot;I&#x27;m okay with idiots harrassing minorities&quot;.<p>(edit to add an unwarranted disclaimer: by &quot;idiot&quot;, I&#x27;m not referring to the lady in the original story, but to the OP&#x27;s description of the &quot;tragically ignorant, in need of raising their bar&quot;)
