DON'T RACIST


When I read a newspaper 2- 3 weeks ago about Benayoun been ‘booed’ by Malaysian fan at Bukit Jalil, suddenly I remember this one story about racism….May be you all happened to read this story before, but I just ant to share with somebody/whoever missed this story. This happened in a British Airways flight before takie off from Johhanesburg to London. According to the sender of the e-mail, this story was true…. But….. Wallahualam….
 
A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man.
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess.
“Yes Madam, what is the matter?”  the hostess asked.
“You obviously do not see it then?” she responded.
“You placed me next to a black man”.
“I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group.
Give me an alternative seat”.
“Be calm please”,
the hostess replied.
“Almost all the places on this Flight is taken”.

“I will go to see if another place is available”. The Hostess went
away and t hen came back a few minutes later.
“'Madam, Just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the economy class.  I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is a seat in the business class”.
“All the same, we still have one place in the first class”.
 Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued:
“It is not Usual for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the first class”.
“However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting”.
She turned to the black guy, and said,
“ Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first class”.
At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

  Actually the above story has nothing to do with Benayoun case. Just to share........
