Only in America
An American Airlines flight crew ordered a passenger to remove her “Hail Satan” T-shirt or be kicked off the plane. Swati Runi Goyal, 49, belongs to the Satanic Temple, an atheist group that uses tongue-in-cheek Satan worship to test “religious freedom” laws. The crew delayed the plane’s departure until Goyal donned a different shirt. The company later apologized, saying, “Discrimination has no place at American Airlines.”
A Florida girl has been suspended from middle school for using a butter knife to cut a peach. Ronald Souto, father of the 11-year-old, admits she technically violated her school’s “weapons policy,” but says she used the knife to share a peach with a friend, and that it is a dull utensil from a set made for toddlers “to learn how to eat properly.”
