So what are peoples thoughts?

Some passengers complained that 6 middle eastern men were acting "suspicious" before getting on a plane. So the airline took them off, they were detained for over 7 hrs then cleared.

Now they are taking US airways to court and they also want to take the passengers to court. but first with the airlines .

So house republicans (and dems) passed a bill that will protect passengers if they report "suspicious" activity from being sued.

Judging by what happened to these 6 guys it seems like suspicious activity is being muslim and speaking arabic. so this bill is good, let's encourage racial profiling.

    possibly more to the story.

    It is unfortunate they were removed, but if other people in the airline industry say US airways acted correctly, I tend to side with the people who have the experience. My guess is this is an isolated incident. People aren't allowed to travel on planes prob on a daily basis and it's usually behavior that's the cause.

    Odd and sad. I wonder how long six white Americans would be detained if someone thought they were acting suspicious.

    what should have happened was the 6 men should have been taken off, checked and if they were ok put them back on. if the passengers didnt like it then they could leave.

    Perhaps.

    I haven't found an explanation or a reason why they asked for the extenders.
