Woman Removed from Airplane for Harassing Trump Supporter
“Are we going to have a problem?”
Trump supporter Scott Kotesky was on a flight from Baltimore to Seattle this weekend when the woman sitting next to him began bothering him when she determined that he supports the president.
The incident caught the attention of the airline crew which quickly took action and ultimately removed the woman from the plane. The entire exchange was caught on video which has since gone viral.
The Washington Free Beacon has details on the confrontation:
Woman Removed From Plane After Berating Trump Supporter
“She has called me names and insulted me just for sitting down in this seat saying that I came here to celebrate today,” Kotesky told a flight attendant, referring to Trump’s inauguration.
The flight attendant asked the woman if there was a problem. She replied that she wanted him to change seats.
“You don’t have that right,” the flight attendant said, and left to get another attendant.
“You pretend you have the moral high ground but you put that man’s finger on the nuclear button,” the woman said, turning to Kotesky. “That man doesn’t believe in climate change.”
“Do you believe in gravity? Did you know gravity is just a theory?” she continued, using frantic air quotes when she said “believe.”
Another flight attendant asked the woman to leave the plane.
“I paid for this seat and I’m sitting in it,” she said. “He is in my space.”
“She’s spoken hostilities,” Kotesky interjected.
When the woman realized what she had gotten herself into, she attempted to play the victim.
The flight attendant continued to ask her to leave. She said she would be quiet and continued to attempt to keep her seat.
“I’m going home now. My mother-in-law, his mother, died … I’m going home now,” the woman said. “There’s no way I’m getting off this plane … My husband lost his mother. Have some respect.”
But the flight attendants began to collect her bags. Her husband, who had been silent and avoiding eye contact throughout the ordeal, joined them.
When the woman finally leaves the plane, passengers can be heard clapping and chanting USA. The video below includes the entire scenario:
Here’s how Kotesky described the incident on Facebook, via Twitchy:
Just had the craziest experience ever on an airplane:
I’m boarding my flight from Baltimore to Seattle and approach my seat. I had an upgraded seat that I paid a little extra for because of the long 6 hour flight. As I approach my row I smile and motion to the husband and wife sitting in the aisle and middle seat that Imy seat was next to the window. I put my backpack in the overhead and the wife with a very stern voice says to me:
“Did you come here to cheer or to protest?”
“I came here to celebrate democracy ma’am”… I knew this was going to be a long flight at this point. She then proceeded with: (somewhat paraphrased as my memory allows)
Her: “You put a crazed man in charge of the nuclear codes! You should be ashamed!”
Me: ‘Well we’re all entitled to our opinions here ma’am.”
Her: “And I’m entitled to get drunk and puke in your lap! I’m going to throw up right in your lap! You make me sick! Don’t talk to me! Don’t look at me! Don’t you dare even put your arm on that rest. You disgust me! You should be ashamed of yourself! You put a maniac’s finger on the button” (assuming she’s means nukes). You are a bigot. You should get off this plane!”
Me: “ma’am, by definition, bigotry is disparaging someone prior to knowing them simply by their beliefs and opinions. Thank you for being the very thing you preach against.”
She the proceeded with other various rantings such as my lack of critical thinking and other insults. Finally a flight attendant came over as you will see in the video followed by a supervisor informing that she would have to deboard the plane per captains orders.
After much fuss, airport police came and removed her from the plane. The lady across from me filmed that and was gracious to sent it to me. Many others around me defended me insisting the lady had caused all the commotion and was verbally assaulting not just me but others wearing various Trump apparel boarding the plane.
As the lady was removed I saw that I was surrounded by blacks, Latinos, Asians, and whites, all who had chimed in asking her to be removed and who had defended me. I was touched and moved knowing later that not all these people were trump supporters. The black man who took the seat next to me was a registered Democrat and he and I had a very good discussion about the beauty of free speech and coming together when people insult and commit acts of violence just for having differing views.
It truly was a great demonstration of AMERICA and its people coming together and standing up for one another. Hope you enjoy.

Thanks for reposting the video. She looks exactly like you’d expect – I’d assume she was on her way to Scotland to meet up with the other two witches.
Either that, or returning to her natural avocation – haunting houses.
Seattle, in fact. Which is, as it turns out, full of witches. Hahahaha
Well, you have to acknowledge that people like this woman have a place in society.
It’s called a psychiatric ward.
Is she mad because she looks just like her husband? Seriously. It’s as if they’re right out of some avant garde play. And Capt. Cuck just sits there; doesn’t try to calm her down, doesn’t try to make her stop before their entire trip is ruined, nothing. (Admittedly, he probably learned years ago there’s no point trying to convince her to shut her trap.)
Shame on her. If her story is true about her husband’s mother having just passed she is making his day even worse. Instead of supporting him she decides to persecute a total stranger and get them kick off their flight.
Stupid harpy.
Perhaps he was hoping that they would simply kick her off the flight and let him continue.
If her husband had any balls, he wouldn’t have stopped her. He would have let her prate on, and then would have stayed firmly in his own seat as she was led off the plane!
For some reason this episode reminds me of a tasteless old joke.
What do you say to a woman with two black eyes? “Woman, I done told you twice!”
You can always count on me for tasteless jokes.

There is a reason why the crazies (I would not rule out the possibility that this woman is a mean drunk) have such a horrible idea of Trump and his supporters. Delusions about what Republicans and Trump supporters stand for are pervasive.
Take a look at today’s La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz, with its fake tweet by Trump,
http://www.gocomics.com/lacucaracha
and contrast it to what the President-elect actually wrote about Dr. King this past holiday:
https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5obkxr/trumps_beautiful_message_for_martin_luther_king/
“Today our nation pauses to honor a legend, an icon, and an American hero. The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. lifted up the conscience of our nation — a towering leader in his day, and a lasting inspiration for all generations to follow.
“Our Declaration declares that ‘all men are created equal,’ and Dr. King challenged our nation to live out that sacred truth: to banish the evils of bigotry, segregation and oppression from the institutions of society and the hearts of men.
“His legacy of freedom is the true memorial to his life: no testimonial can pay better tribute than the faces of young children living out their dreams.
“But his work is not done: all around us today we see communities and schools falling behind and not sharing the prosperity of American life. Each of us has a solemn obligation to ensure that no American is left behind — and that all Americans are fully included in the American dream. When young Americans of color are left on the sidelines, our nation is denied a lifetime of contributions to this society — and when any of our American brothers and sisters is forced to live in fear, or poverty, or violence, it is a setback for the entire nation.
“We rise and fall together, and today we pledge to follow in Dr. King’s footsteps so that all Americans may know the full blessings of this God-blessed land.” ”

It is true that, after attack by John Lewis, DJT responded with some criticism that sounds very much like the theme of the La Cucaracha strip.
http://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/trump-john-lewis-233630
But DJT, and most sane adults, can very likely distinguish between MLK and John Lewis. As for the Politico spin that John Lewis is “revered” by both parties, that might be part of the problem, because Lewis has had a far-too-long run playing the race card for no good reason.

No one, and I mean absolutely NO ONE, should be above reproach for being called out over a lie. John Lewis lied and quite rightly got his backside handed to him by The Donald!
Just because the guy did something nearly 60 years ago shouldn’t make him a sacred cow now.

It is true that, after attack by John Lewis, DJT responded with some criticism that sounds very much like the theme of the La Cucaracha strip.
That criticism was well deserved. John Lewis, like the SPLC, may once upon a time have done something good. I don’t know, it was before my time; I can only go on second-hand reports, and those aren’t always accurate. But since I’ve been paying attention to politics, which is a long time, neither Lewis nor the SPLC have done anything that deserves reverence, and both have done a good deal that is plainly despicable.
All she did was say what all progs think.
“My husband lost his mother. Have some respect.”
Nice touch.
After verbally attacking a guy just sitting in his seat, waiting for the plane to fill and then take off.
The left – always wrong, but never in doubt.
Gravity was abandoned in the early 20th century when Einstein published his General Relativity Theory.
Um, no. Einstein radically refined our understanding of what gravity is, but it’s very much there.
Um, no … before relativity, gravity nominally defined an apparent attractive force between massive bodies. In relativity there is no force to call gravity. There is matter, which shapes space, and space determines the path matter will follow. No force, no gravity. Spacetime and matter alone define the phenomenon once called the force of gravity.
Did anyone else catch when she said, “I paid for this seat and I’m sitting in it.” She then glances at him and said, “he is in my space.” Entitled much?
Later, the husband asks if they move seats and quiet down, can they stay on the plane. The steward tells him that won’t be possible, because the captain is having them removed, and the husband says, “the captain doesn’t know shit.”
I don’t have any sympathy for the husband, he’s just as bad as his wife.
I hadn’t noticed that… good catch.
I had a mild twinge of sympathy for him but after hearing that no more.
You just have to love the husband’s “oh my” hand over his heart. money has it that they are both college professors in Georgetown.
Nah. Par for the course among Seattle Progressives.
We’ve got a lot of her version of crazy where I live. They’re having a difficult time accepting the fact that they’re out of power. When Bush was president, we had protests every weekend. After Obama took office, the only protest of note was a DAPL gathering before the election. I guess we’re going to go back to the weekly cryfests again.
One look at the “husband” gives you two things: a) an operational definition of “pussy whipped” and b) a forecast as to how the current crop of beta-males will look 20 years hence. She and he discovered you don’t piss with the power of the ship’s Captain: GTFOMP ????????????
After watching this imbecile I read on another site about a female Secret Service agent who refuses to “Take a bullet for Trump”. She goes on to say how much she hates him and how much she loves hillary. She is an activist and is involved in many hateful female groups. She then takes it all down from Facebook and says she was just upset after the election and of course, will “Take a bullet” if need be for Trump. Can you just for one moment imagine what a white agent, saying the same thing about obama, would be subjected to by the msm and the Demorats? She actually said she would prefer jail time to protecting Trump!
Just have to say that I am impressed with how professionally the crew handled the situation.
Nice work.
Such behavior is the direct result of decades worth of frowning upon instantaneous pain as a tool of behavioral modification. The price we pay for being oh so enlightened.
The young man who was subjected to this vile, miserable, loathsome and belligerent crone’s hostile and infantile antics comported himself with great restraint, civility and maturity. He was polite but firm. A model example of how to behave when confronted by Leftists’ infantile belligerence.
The crone’s emasculated rent-boy/eunuch/cuckold sat there completely meek, compliant and submissive, offering no intervention while his companion verbally abused a total stranger. What a pathetic display.
If I were married to this woman, I would pray for a mercifully swift death if I couldn’t obtain a divorce. And, if my prayers were not answered, I would commit seppuku with alacrity.
Woman: “Winston, if you were my husband I should flavour your coffee with arsenic!”
Churchill: “Madam, if I were your husband, I’d drink it!“
As a friend of mine perceptively noticed, if you’re in a situation where the men’s hair is long and the women’s short, you’re likely amongst progressives.
It would have been great to have been on the plane clapping with the other passengers when they took her off.
But we’ll enjoy this vicariously…
Like most liberals, she doesn’t understand science or know what a “theory” is. Nobody doesn’t “believe” in gravity, just like nobody doesn’t believe in “climate” or even “climate change.” AGW started an observation – it’s getting warmer – that led to a hypothesis, “Are humans altering the climate?” Note it asks a question. The reply is a theory – an attempt to explain how the question can be answered in the affirmative. It does not by itself affirm the hypothesis, it can only make the hypothesis more sure. If the theory leads to evidence that falsifies the theory itself, then the answer to the hypothesis may still be “yes,” but the theory as a way to get to that answer is invalid – it has been shown false or “falsified.” This may mean the answer to the hypothesis is “no,” or it may be “yes” but through a process or mechanism that hasn’t yet been contemplate. Sometimes, while trying to prove a theory, evidence is gathered that refutes the hypothesis, and sometimes even overturns the observation, making the answer “no.” Some scientist believe data exists that both refutes the alleged observation and the AGW hypothesis.
Ultimately, theories require testing to validate them. For AGW, this step is completely missing. Warmists also mistake evidence for warming (such that it may be) for evidence of human influence, and conflate coincidence (it’s getting warmer as the CO2 level is rising) with correlation (there’s a link between a warmer globe and rising CO2 levels), but they are not the same thing.
It is worth noting that after a century, scientists are still trying to falsify Einstein’s theory of relativity. One experiment yielding results not predicted by the theory would prove it wrong, or at least incomplete. Science is never “settled.” And Einstein wouldn’t be trying to muzzle the scientists who are skeptical enough of his theory to test it.
