Another incident of religious-discrimination came to light when United Airlines pilot asked a Muslim family to leave a plane citing safety issues.
Reportedly, Eaman-Amy Saad Shebley and her family, including her husband and three young children were about to take off on a flight bound for Washington at a Chicago airport when the incident happened. The pilot asked the family to get off the aircraft.

When Ms Shebley asked the pilot about the action being a “discriminatory” decision, the pilot said that it was a flight safety issue. The family wasn’t even given any details. The family got in touch with the Council on American-Islamic Relations who in-turn sent a letter to United Airlines on the family’s behalf demanding disciplinary action against the staff.

Shebley wrote on Facebook:

“Shame on you ?#?unitedAirlines? for profiling my family and me for no reason other than how we look and kicking us off the plane for “safety flight issues” on our flight to DC .
