This site is truly an amazing place
It teaches you: -
That some people never go forward from the playground mentality and never grow up
That racial prejudice regrettably is alive and well
That words can sometimes be insufficient
That there are some lovely people in the world and some very unpleasant
That there are kind and beautiful people all over the world a few seconds away
Humility when people find you beneath their notice
That there is a world community
That there are an awful lot of brave ladies out there
That there is always someone worse off than yourself
That to gain you have to risk
Never judge someone on appearance

A 50- something year old white woman arrived at her seat on a crowded flight and immediately didn't want the seat. The seat was next to a black man. Disgusted, the woman immediately summoned the flight attendant and demanded a new seat. The woman said "I cannot sit here next to this black man." The fight attendant said "Let me see if I can find another seat." After checking, the flight attendant returned and stated "Ma'am, there are no more seats in economy, but I will check with the captain and see if there is something in first class." About 10 minutes went by and the flight attendant returned and stated "The captain has confirmed that there are no more seats in economy, but there is one in first class. It is our company policy to never move a person from economy to first class, but being that it would be some sort of scandal to force a person to sit next to an UNPLEASANT person, the captain agreed to make the switch to first class." Before the woman could say anything, the attendant gestured to the black man and said, "Therefore sir, if you would so kindly retrieve your personal items, we would like to move you to the comfort of first class as the captain doesn't want you to sit next to an unpleasant person." Passengers in the seats nearby began to applause while some gave a standing ovation.
