5:19Now PlayingA professor was taken off of a plane after he was accused of possibly being a terrorist. He was writing out math equations, and a woman thought he looked suspicious. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Decorated economics professors be warned: Working on an equation during your flight can apparently be misinterpreted as suspicious behavior.
University of Pennsylvania professor Guido Menzio boarded an American Airlines flight from Philadelphia on Saturday, en route to Queens University to give a lecture. The 40-year old Italian, dressed in Diesel jeans and a red Lacoste shirt, made the mistake of sitting next to a woman who reportedly felt uncomfortable about her seatmate.
According to The Washington Post, the 30-something woman seated next to Manzio first tried to make small talk with the economics professor to no avail. Menzio seemed very consumed with his task at hand, scribbling mysterious symbols on a pad of paper. The woman immediately became suspicious of the markings and passed a note to a flight attendant.”
