There is NO ROOM in MY AMERICA for anti-semitism!!!
Melvin Airline Apologizes for Christian Remark Fri Feb 13, 3:01 PM ET Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo! FORT WORTH, Texas - The chief executive of American Airlines apologized after the pilot of a recent cross-country flight got on the intercom and asked all Christians aboard to raise their hands. The pilot, Rodger K. Findiesen of Annapolis, Md., has been grounded while the Feb. 7 incident is investigated, Gerard Arpey said. The pilot of the Los Angeles-to-New York flight asked all Christians aboard to discuss their faith with their fellow passengers. "Let me assure you that we take this very seriously and are conducting a thorough investigation," Arpey wrote to Abraham Foxman, director of the Anti-Defamation League, a group that monitors anti-Semitism. The airline "promotes an environment of respect for the diversity of all persons, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, disability, gender, age or sexual orientation." Foxman had complained about the incident. |
