Tropic Thunder star Brandon T. Jackson went on a Twitter rant after allegedly being escorted off an U.S. Airways flight and questioned by police after flipping out on a flight attendant who called him the n-word.
Jackson, 29, claims that he was on a US Airways flight when a flight attendant named “Dee” approached him and asked him to sit down.
In the midst of their argument, Jackson claims that the flight attendant called him the N-word and continued by saying, “I don”t care if you’re Obama’s son, get in your seat!!”
Jackson was later escorted off the plane and questioned by Phoenix police.
“The cops are questioning me this is ridiculous … Please help!”
“I was released from questioning and stranded in PHX they will not let me fly anymore and I don’t want to…”
“This was the most racist thing that ever happen to me even the white people on the plane was like that was racist.”
Later reports state that “a rep for the Phoenix Police Dept. received a call from the airline around 7:30 PM reporting a disruptive and belligerent passenger who had been cut off from alcohol.
When police arrived, officers spoke with Brandon and determined no crime had been committed. Brandon, who was supposed to catch a connecting flight to Burbank, was escorted out of the terminal and not allowed to fly on US Airways that night.
Cops say Brandon was cooperative with police.”
There has been no response from U.S. Airways. – ruthie hawkins/@ruubabie
