The couple was removed from the flight due to hysteria and homophobia: they believe that they were punished for sympathizing with Trump
A couple of passengers were removed from a JetBlue flight in Florida after they 'shouted racist and homophobic slurs' but wife claimed they were removed because they were Trump supporters, reports NYPost.
The footage, first posted to TikTok and later posted to Reddit, shows a woman giving a tirade on board a plane in West Palm Beach.
“Guys, do you see what is happening in America? - she shouts. “He didn’t like what we said, and now we’re being kicked off the plane, and you all have to wait.”
“This is fucking outrageous! “We’re going to turn into China—that’s coming,” she goes on a rant. “You don’t like the words coming out of my mouth.” No words! No words! Free speech is dead!

At one point, the woman's husband utters homophobic slurs, but mostly sits silently during the woman's nervous breakdown.
The woman also claims to have once been a dancer on Broadway and praises Elon Musk, saying, "He's the best...he's the fucking king!"
She also yells that she "won't make the damn vaccine" and calls the masked passengers "sheep".
The woman drew ridicule from other passengers as she threatened to sue the airline and the person who filmed the wild video.

"Sorry, it's our anniversary," she also says as she is being escorted off the plane.
At one point, she yells, “We have to get off the plane because we are Trump supporters.”
“Seriously, I really think so,” she continued.
Charlotte D'Alessio, who posted the video on TikTok, wrote: "A couple shouting racist and homophobic slurs will not get off a plane leaving West Palm Beach today. Free show for everyone on board."
Last week, the Federal Aviation Administration announced that its "zero tolerance policy" for uncontrolled passengers would become permanent.
The agency implemented this policy on January 13, 2021 after seeing an alarming number of incidents. Under this policy, the FAA imposes fines on passengers who behave inappropriately in lieu of warning letters or advice.

“The zero tolerance policy, combined with the agency's public awareness campaign, has helped reduce incident rates by more than 60 percent. The FAA will continue to work with its airline, worker, airport, security and law enforcement partners to continue to reduce incidents,” the agency said in a statement.
