Delta bans Navy SEAL who killed Bin Laden after mask-less selfie
Fox Business ^ | 8/20/2020 | Thomas Barrabi

Delta Air Lines said Thursday that it has banned retired U.S. Navy SEAL Robert O’Neill, the man credited with killing Osama Bin Laden, for allegedly failing to wear a mask during a recent flight.

O’Neill, 44, tweeted that he had been banned from the airline “for posting a picture.” Earlier this week, O’Neill posted a now-deleted mask-less selfie while sitting on a Delta plane, with the caption, "I'm not a [expletive]."

“Part of every customer’s commitment prior to traveling on Delta is the requirement to acknowledge our updated travel policies, which includes wearing a mask,” a Delta spokesman told FOX Business. “Failure to comply with our mask-wearing mandate can result in losing the ability to fly Delta in the future.”

O’Neill said the picture was a joke and that he had his mask in his lap when it was taken. He criticized Delta in response to the ban, writing, “Thank God it wasn’t @Delta flying us in when we killed Bin Laden."

Why can’t Delta just hand out HCQ pills with the peanuts and coke?

Regardless of a person’s opinion of wearing/not wearing a mask, you should abide by a business’s policy when occupying their space. If you’re not willing to wear AND KEEP ON a mask, don’t buy a ticket, stay out of the store, whatever.

During bullshiite like this

You find out who the real assh0les are

They are the ones who enjoy the mandates so they can follow ineffective rules and penalize people for not following the ineffective rules

They like the insanity because it gives them some power and they do shiite like this with it

They are normally spineless, if thy had balls they would not go along with the insanity

FROM the headline, I gather Bin Laden wasn’t wearing a mask, took a selfie, and they killed him. a bit over the top, IMHO.

So right you are.

That’s EXACTLY the way our Founding Fathers earned our liberty from England.

So he knew the policy and made a point of flaunting it on social media.

Now he whines.

Is he sure he's not a [expletive]?

No you should not. Their policy is stupid, illegal and unconstitutional. Civil disobedience is a time honored American tradition that needs to be preserved.

If you’re not willing to wear AND KEEP ON a mask, don’t buy a ticket, stay out of the store, whatever.

No.

You have a nice day now.

Well he broke the rule and flaunted it. I’m supposed to feel sorry for him? Does he get a pass cause he killed bin laden? Nope.

Sadly some people on this board would have called the red coats to report those guys throwing tea into the harbor.
