[Whyayeman]

Punches were allegedly exchanged in ‘extraordinary’ incident that delayed plane at Heathrow for two hours.

Feelings run high at Heathrow when two women discussed the merits of a 'MAGA' cap. Rather like the polls, it appeared to be a draw.

I learned a new word here. "Affray".

Wear a Harris hat, no one is going to bother you. Wear a Trump hat, and you're going to get attacked.

The article doesn't say who attacked whom.

Well, I suppose you must have been there! As an eyewitness you will no doubt be able to describe a Harris hat.

Here is a picture of a Harris Tweed hat. I hope it helps.

Yes, it is a proper criminal offence here in the UK, more serious than assault. Here are the guidelines for charging someone with affray:

• Targeting of individual(s) by a group
• Use of a weapon to inflict violence
• Use of serious or sustained violence
• Intention to cause fear of very serious violence

I spent a few days on Harris. Lovely place. Especially if you like some quiet time.

No, you don't. Stop doing things that make the problem worse. As in, making claims with no supporting evidence.

lol, do you think Magadonians won't throw down?

It says the lib lady is the one who initiated the comments, but nothing about who threw the first punch.

Also... As a man who's donned women's attire for halloween on multiple occasions and who happily admits to crying at Disney musicals with his daughter, I can think of few things more emasculating than walking around in that "Trump Force Captain" hat.

It was a dumb thing to fight about. I think the lady protesting the hat is the one who should have been kicked off the flight and the other lady left on board.

I had to look up affray at Dictionary.com:
"an instance of fighting in a public place that disturbs the peace."

I just figured one was wearing a maga cap, and the other had their hair on fire, therefore unable to wear a cap.

People have keyed people's cars, that have Harris on it. I won't put Harris and Walz, or any one, for Trump supporters to see. Since some of the Trump supporters, that I know are badem to be that bad.

Look up 'attacked wearing Trump hat' and then compare that to attacked wearing 'Obama or Biden or Harris hat', and you'll see a vast difference.

Don't attack or fight with people, simple as that!

Heathrow is definitely one of my favorite airports!

When a pharmaceutical company gets so big that it branches out into the airlines business, they”ll be able to offer ”twilight-travel”, informed-consent option to be sedated during travel.

Count down from ten in NY, awaken in LA.

Ive been through it half a dozen times. But nothing seemed great about it. What do you like there?
