Delta Puts Romney Hecklers on No-Fly List For Exercising First Amendment Rights In Flight
Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on was confronted by supporters of President Trump at the airport in Salt Lake City and subsequently heckled on a flight to Washington, D.C. Now Delta has placed them on a no-fly list.
Trump told protesters at the rally about Romney, “I wonder if he enjoyed his flight in last night,” bringing laughs and cheers.
A video of the flight showed several passengers on the airplane chanting, “traitor, traitor, traitor” for 20 seconds on the plane.
One yelled, “Resign, Mitt.” Another said, “Mitt Romney, you don’t listen to your constituents.”
One passenger (a Romney aid) spoke up in the senator’s defense. “I’m one of your constituents, and I think you’re doing wonderful.”
Delta spokesman Anthony Black said six people involved have been banned permanently from the airline because of their behavior toward the senator — and they otherwise would have been banned through the end of the pandemic for not wearing masks.
He added that Delta was easily able to review what happened because of videos some of the protesters (and others) posted online.
Companies using their powerful positions against citizens exercising their constitutional rights is becoming a common occurrence in America, this will likely become a signature of the Biden administration.
