‘Hate-related behaviour…,’ After Delta, American Airlines ground pilots who celebrated Charlie Kirk’s assassination

American Airlines has grounded pilots who were seen celebrating the assassination of a Conservative commentator and Trump ally, Charlie Kirk. The company said that they condemn “violence of any kind” and “hate-related or hostile behaviour”.

‘Hate-related behaviour is unacceptable’

“American Airlines condemns violence of any kind,” the airline wrote on X (formerly Twitter), before adding, “Furthermore, hate-related or hostile behaviour runs contrary to our purpose, which is to care for people on life’s journey.”
