10 Crazy Things That Happened on Trump's Inauguration Weekend

By Michael Gryboski, Editor Twitter

9. Love NOT Trumping Hate on a Plane

On a recent airline trip one elderly woman berated a Trump supporter so horribly that she was removed from the plane.

Video of the incident, posted to social media and garnering millions of views and numerous online articles, showed a woman verbally harassing a Trump supporter while on an Alaska Airlines flight scheduled to go from Baltimore to Seattle.

"Maryland Transportation Authority Police Lt. Kevin Ayd confirmed to CBS News on Monday that the woman and her husband were escorted off the plane at around 5:30 p.m. They were not charged," reported CBS News.

"A representative of Alaska Airlines said they were given a refund instead of being rescheduled on a later flight. The representative said in the future they will be allowed to book other Alaska Airlines trips."

In a later interview with Fox News, the man being harassed explained that he wanted to show the woman "the love of Jesus" and in keeping with that, had no plans to press charges.
